 A Day Visit to Yogyakarta

Last week, I went to Yogyakarta with my family. My father drove the car. My mother sat beside him. My sister and I sat in the back seats.
We woke up early in the morning. My father prepared the car in the garage while mother was preparing food for breakfast and some snack for us. My sister and I packed some clothes. After everything got ready and we had our breakfast, we left the house at six o’clock.

 How to Make Orange Juice
Things you’ll need:
-          Oranges
-          Knife

Steps:  .   
1. Tightly squeeze or roll the orange with the palm of your hand across   
    the table to soften them.
2. Cut The orange in half pieces and remove the seeds.
3. Grip the one half of the orange tightly and squeeze it by hand, 
    using a plain juicer to get the juice out.
                It is best to use an electric orange juicer, as you will get much more juice 
                from the orange and into the glass. 
           4. Scrape the orange with a spoon and add fruit directly to juice
               if you use a hand juicer for more pulp
               If you prefer clear juice, pour the juice through a strainer before drinking.
           5. Drink and enjoy a cold glass of freshly squeezed orange juice.
