Dylan Dreyer is known for her positivity and always does everything with a smile. 

So it comes as no surprise that the Today Show star has been making the best out of a stressful situation, by keeping calm and carrying on during her Italian vacation. 

Dylan and her entire family had lost their luggage during their flight - and her case has still not been returned.

However, the mother-of-three has made sure the mishap has been seen as nothing more than part of the adventure, and has shared some fun new photos on social media during their time away so far. 

"Who needs luggage when you’ve got your family?? Laughing through lost luggage and extreme heat in Sicily! What a trip!" she wrote alongside some joyful pictures, including group shots featuring her entire family, one of her three sons looking out at the mountain views from the balcony, and another of her husband, Brian Fichera, sitting in a restaurant smiling while their middle son Oliver, three, sat on his lap.

Dylan is clearly very resourceful and trying to make the best out of the situation. "The hotel was nice enough to give us nightgowns so I took my bathrobe, tied it around my waist and made myself a dress," she said, adding: "I've been wearing the same pants since Friday. I've been washing them in the sink and hanging them outside!" 

She went on to say that while she was informed that her luggage had arrived at the airport ON Tuesday, when she got there, her suitcase was nowhere to be seen.

"There's 16 of us, we're laughing at it at this point," she said. Dylan's luggage mishap isn't the only problem the star has had to face while away in Italy as the country is currently being hit by extreme temperatures and wildfires. 

Sharing her experience of the heat, Dylan said: "I can't even explain to you guys how hot it is. You know when you open a hot oven and you get a hot blast in the face, that's what it feels like outside."

She continued: "We were supposed to go on a tour to a town to called Syracuse in Sicily, which got to 114 degrees yesterday and is the hottest temperature ever in Europe and we happen to be here. We're not going to do that tour today because it's too hot for the kids."
