Ernie seems to have been struck with an idea. "My family is planning a trip to Iceland." He is so filled with excitement he’s practically waving his hands around the whole compartment. "You guys can come with us. We are supposed to come back a few weeks before school starts, so for the last few weeks we can stay together at one of our houses." He finally calms down. "I’ll have to ask, but I’m sure they won't mind."
