Italy Day 1

The first day of my journey was extremely stressful. I had three-quarters of a school day left before heading to the airport with my teachers and classmates. The flight I took on United Airlines was one of the most unpleasant experiences I've had. I was uncomfortably seated next to the air conditioning, which made it difficult for me to sleep during the overnight flight. Feeling nervous, I couldn't bring myself to eat the strange chicken dish served on the plane. Despite all of this I was excited to see what was to come.
