I have just discovered an incredible thing, tomorrow I will go to an holiday in London. I had just finished my homework and had just studied when my dad and my mum had come home and had revealed the surprise to me and my sister. I really like London. It have a lot of fantastic places like the Big Bang or London eye. But it’s colder than Italy and especially in this period there are low, and I hate cold temperture. But I’m still very happy and excited. It’s pretty funny because my sister, before my parents entered home, had just watching a video on Youtube about a trip in England.
We have the fly at 10 a.m. and we will in London after lunch.
