Milan

It was pretty cold and cloudy in Milan, hence the images are kind dark. But, in case you didn't know, if you click on any of the photos, a bigger version will open.

This was the first thing we saw when we got off the train in Milan. Interestingly enough, she is wearing more than most of the women you see on billboards in Italy.


The name of this store translated into "The Ideal Bathroom." Anyway, you can see Will and I in the mirror.


This is the Doumo (cathedral) of Milan. Unfortunately, it is getting its 10-year cleaning, and much of the facade is covered with scaffolding. The inside, though, was pretty impressive, and the duomo is much larger than it appears to be from the facade. I would venture to say that it may be almost twice the size of the Genoa cathedral.


This is the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. It's pretty much a mall filled with fancy-pants stores like Prada, Louis Vuitton, Swarovski, etc. After all, Milan is the style capital of the world.


And here I am in the Galleria.
