We highly recommend to all travellers to Milan to park at the airport and catch the express train into Milan. It's only a 1/2 hour trip and this is what the Milanese do according to Mike at the Sheridan and a lovely lady we met on the train who is a lecturer in economics at the Uni in Parma....." Don't drive in Milan, catch the train in because they change the road signs, you don't know which suburb you're in and you would never have made it to the centre of Milan because the centre has been blocked off"... Amazing what you pick up when you talk to the locals....the Milanese are charming and so helpful!
We went to the Last Supper....as an artist I highly recommend seeing it as it is not flat, the expressions are palpable and there is so much meaning that you need time to sit with it....I found it breathtaking....
Now some more pics of the duomo....some photos were taken from the 7th floor/roof top of the department store next to the duomo...
Now back to the streets of Milan
Next the Galleria Victor Emmanuel
Ooh, Lisa would so admire the core strength of those Indians.
