Tweley River

Three weeks ago on Sunday 19 July, we went to Tweley river. I

am stayed at my sister house in Tolitoli. It has a big bathroom
and a big kitchen.
At 2 oclock in the afternoon, we went to river. When we were
here, we jump and swim into the river. We feel Very cool and
fresh water. We moved to my sisters house at 5 oclock.
When we were at home, I feel happy because I can swim in the
Tweley river again. Because it was my last day in Tolitoli.
