milano
i made it to milano at 7pm and taking a quick look around the station, this was not a place i would like to hang around all night long. the last bus to the airport left at 10pm and i wasn’t about to hang around the airport for 12 hours so i found the number to the hostel and found a bed to sleep in for a few hours that night. milano is a crazy city.. incredibly trendy. like random people riding the metro look like runway models. that sure made me feel like a scrub with my huge-ass backpack. hahaha.
i only got to walk around by the duomo for a couple hours because the stupid metro, like bart, cuts out at around 12am. but i grabbed my last gelato and sat on the steps in front of the duomo. il salotto di Milano looks fantastic by night which was right across from the duomo. there were a couple sad things about my visit to milano: the first was that the whole front of the duomo was covered by canvassed scaffolding so i saw only the top and the second was that since i was there so late, i didn’t get to do any shopping in any of the cool milano stores.
