Milan: Midnight Rest

Yesterday evening we got to the hotel at 7:30pm. Then the people at the hotel came out and asked my dad to show everyone’s passport. My dad got really mad at them because he did not think that they needed to know all the stuff that was in them. He got out of it by ending up only showing them his passport. Then we moved in, and placed our huge pile of luggage in a corner of the room. After we were all in, my dad went out to get dinner for us. While he was out, Lindsay, Kaelan and I went into the pool. Then we came back, dried off and watched the news on TV. At that time, my dad came back with sandwiches for everybody.

We had to get up early the next day so as to arrive in time in Cavaillon, France, where we were going to meet my French family, so we turned in. My mom flew back into Milan Malpensa airport and arrived at the hotel while we were asleep.

I woke up this morning at 3:30am, exactly when my dad said we should, while everybody else was asleep. At the moment I did not know what time it was so I did not wake anybody else up. After a half hour I woke up my mom as I was a bit scared, and asked what time it was. The clock she had showed 3:00am (it was still on London time) so we waited for a bit, then woke everyone else up. Then we found out that is was already past 4:00am and had to rush to pack up and leave.
