Italy 1 - Milan

We flew by Ryan Air from Bristol to Milan, Italy. Initially Milan was not part of our itinerary but since it is the only city in Italy which is connected by Ryan Air from Bristol, we decided to just make a stop. So no, we didn't go and see Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" which was already famous and made even more famous by Dan Brown.


It was already evening when we arrived in Milan. Poor Sah was looking tired in front of the Milan train station with her big backpacks.


Beautiful balcony...


...but everywhere was filled with graffiti...


...any available space.

The overall appearance of Italy was not appealing. It's sort of like a 'post-war city' kind of look. And the weather was terribly hot like back home in Malaysia.


But being a fashion city, u won't be disappointed in Milan. Almost everyone around looks and dresses like a supermodel.


See this...


...and this. Cool eh?


And mind u not only females. Men too!


Purple!




Stylish cyclists!




Attractive window displays.


I love this suit!!


Marvellous flower arrangement.


Tram.


Metro.


Passed by a jewelry exhibition.


Gelato!!! It still makes me drool now!




Classic architecture everywhere.


Duomo on a cloudy backdrop.






The classical dome of the interior.


Sah drooling... hahaha!




These two young violinists caught our attention. Click on the video below to see how well they played the violin!
