It was early in the morning. I was half asleep when my parents woke me. They told me that we were going to Italy; they said that we have to hurry because the taxi would be here. They had my bags packed, we were all ready. I felt like I was going to burst of excitement. Just then the taxi pulled up outside. We were on our way to the airport. I have never been to Italy before but I hear that it is sunny; we were about to take off. I looked out the plane window, everything was tiny.
