Milan - the city of beautiful people

---

After 34 hours of total traveling time...we have arrived in Milan a city where even the coke tins are tall and skinny. We staggered out of the airport and tackled our first attempt at communicating with the locals where it became apparent I should have studied some Italian!!! However, the Italian man quickly adapted to our technology ways and read the address of our hotel off our iPhone. Problem sorted. At least he didn't lock the doors as expienced in my last big adventure overseas to Peru. He did make full use of the autobahn set your own speed limit rule and hurtled along at 140+ most of the way to Marcus' delight.

Having freshened up, we headed out to check out our surrounds. More encounters with the locals, my first ristreto a traditional pizza and an Italian phrase book all purchased relatively easily. :-) Time for some sleep.
