A Quick Stop In Milan
... to spending some relaxing time at Lake Como. On the way I decided to stop over in Milan for a few hours. Milan is Italy's commercial, TV, banking, publishing and fashion capital. It's a very industrious city and honestly, feels very un-Italian. Even their ...
Milan

Milan & The EUR3.50 Can of Coke
We got a fast train from Levanto to Milan (without a reservation.... whoops). Arrived in Milan at about 2pm and were immediately hit by the heat. It had to be high 30's with no wind - not a great combination for a big city. Headed out that afternoon to ...
Milano baby

... 'Fawlty Towers'. The bell boy's name was even Manuel - I kid you not. Then it was a 10 minute walk to Milan's next most impressive building after the Duomo - the railway station. It's the most impressive station I've ever seen. Apparantly it was ...

Train Strike!
The Plan: set out early from Florence and head to the beach...or otherwise known as Nice on the French Riviera. The Reality: an Italian train strike. Hours of waiting. Frustration. Anger. Desperation. Resignation. And finally...Milano. Thank God for the ...
Two Year Anniversary!
... they never knew what we were talking about when we asked for a Pizza Vegetariano....seems simple to me. You? The Cappaccinos brilliant. Italy like France is one of those countries though that you have to spend a few weeks there to see it all. Hopefully I ...

On the Way Home
The train ride back to Milano was fun as we shared a compartment with two Italians and two other charismatic Americans. These compartments usually lead to good conversation since it's only six people, so you just have to be the icebreaker to start ...
Ciao from Milano
... you are wanting to see it. The next morning we packed our bags and were ready for our taxi to Como a 1 hour drive from Milano. Milan is a big city and has beautiful sights but I thought it was dirty and would only recommend it as a day tour. Ciao Jordan ...
