Jolly Hotel Touring Milan

... out with anyone but the family. Luisa said she needed to know for sure when I was going home so they could find someone else, so that night I called the airline and set my flight for November 24th, so I could be home for Thanksgiving. We played Uno that night, and I won and Francesco screamed at me so loudly his pacifier dropped out of his mouth and I saw his tonsils. And she wonders why I sometimes distance myself from them? I ...

... the morning. We have a lovely breakfast, and as Andrea has taken the day off to tend to some family matters in the afternoon, so he offers me his services as tour guide in the morning. Which turn defiantly in my favour! He is very knowledgeable about Milan as he was born here and seems to love the city. And Bless him, when I fought with an internet café and the internet itself, being unable to find a place to stay in Verona for anywhere near a reasonable ...

... was a sight to see also....unmatched synergy of world's leading fashion designer label shops, eateries all in one, huge 4-way intersection shopping precinct, and all under cover of very high portico &amp; frescos!<br><br><br><br><br>Next stop was the sprawling Castella Sforzesco, where we took 45 minutes strolling around the welcoming fountain, and thru the expansive main &amp; side courtyards (Milan ...

... of boutiques, shops, etc, but for us, Changhi airport at Singapore has been the cleanest &amp; most inviting to while away a few hours in!<br><br>After another 6.5 hrs in the air, we finally touched down late at night in Milan, Italy!<br><br>No challenges with luggage, so we proceeded to our pre-planned meeting point for pickup by a (well)paid ...

... off to San Donato metro station again - where we leave the car and go to look round a market, which is there every Sunday. Alex and Zied both described it as an ethnic market where you mostly find people from Morocco, Turkey, Algeria and Tunisia - it was as they had said and I truly believe that you could probably find anything there that you could want - or not! It was amusing to see some of the things that were for sale, parts of car wheels ...

After Istanbul and Rome... even Venice looked dull .. so what do you say about Milan! <br><br>Though we did go to see the famous Leonardo Da Vince's Last Supper. For the nerds likes me, let me tell you that the painting is not on a canvas but on the wall of the church (don't remember the name of the church) ... the experience was Wow... it almost felt that you were having dinner with Jesus and his group .. its costs about 25Euro per person ...

... the entire Duomo because mass was going on, but what we did see was stunning...much better then the Duomo in Florence. It is the second largest church and was finally completed in 1809 after about 400 years of construction. The church can hold up to 40,000 people and has some of the most beautiful stain glass windows I've ever seen. After our tour we headed across the street to Zucco for the famous aperitif Campari. The alcoholic ...

Lo bueno es que como siempre, con un muy buen pretexto...ahora se le ocurrio a la universidad de Caro orgnizar clases en Milan, yo le dije que me parecia increible pero como Santo Tomas hasta no ver las fotos...en general Caro y todas sus amigas se quejaron de lo intensos que pueden llegar a ser los Milaneses, tanto que Carito tuvo que salirle al quite a Bea...menos mal Carito estaba ahí...(donde la ven chiquita pero picosa!!!)

... Giulio and Alfredo are going to act tour guides, and take my parents and sister to Venice. <br>Nicole, Anna and I left to go food shopping, however it was unsuccessful. The supermarket was absolutely packed, it's like the thing to do on Friday night. So the three of us decided to wander around and try to find a Gelateria (Ice Cream shop), but of course, we couldn't find one, we did however, find a deli that sold different brands of gelato, that ...
