We were lucky enough that the Italian transportation strike only lasted one day! We encountered no problems taking the vaporetto to the train station to board our train to Milan!
Jamie loves trains :)
We arrived in Milan hungry, so we stopped at McDonald's near the train station. We very much enjoyed Italian McDonald's!
Our salads were served with EVOO for dressing,
and Italian crunchy breadsticks.
After a quick lunch, we walked about 20 minutes and then arrived at our B&B, which was very nice! It had a large king size bed,
a large bathroom,
and a private balcony with beautiful flowers and a nice view!
We then walked downtown, in search of the Duomo.
We first walked through the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele, where we could not afford anything, but it was fun to look!Then, we admired the facade of the Duomo before going inside to see the grand cathedral.
The inside of the cathedral was beautiful, and it featured unique stained glass windows.
After viewing the inside, we climbed to the top for some unbelievable views!
The top was under construction, so Jamie took this photo of a picture of it, so that we could know what it was really supposed to look like.
After Duomo, we headed back toward our B&B, and ate a lovely dinner at Sabatini. We had bruschetta, salad, wine, gnocchi and risotto. Yum!
