In the summer of 2018, Spann took a visit to see her mom in Italy. Her mother was actually stationed in Italy at the time.

So then starts her 13 hour flight. She sat next to here sister annoying her. Since the flight was so long she got free drinks, so she kept ordering apple juice. They ordered lasagna which was extremely cheesy.

After they landed they went with their mom to a nice hotel. “The hotel looked like a Warehouse on the outside and fancy on the inside,” she said. They stayed at the hotel for around two days. During which the walked around after dark to a bunch of store. After the two days her Dad went back to America to work.

Then Spann took a five hour drive to her mom’s apartment. “The road had so many twists,” she said  When they got to the apartment. Her mom told them to carry as much stuff as her and her sister up to the room, because her mom wasn’t going to come down. Then they realized that the elevator could only hold three people, so it was very packed. Once they were all settled there mom went over a couple of rules and just chilled there.

In the end Spann and her sister had lots of fun, they went to Venice Italy and took a gondola ride. Spann’s mom also ended up taking her and her sister to France.
