Giardini Pubblici, the oldest park in Milan

---

This park is a 5 minute walk from my house. It's so beautiful and it's enjoyed by so many italians- reading the paper, walking the dog or the baby at lunch, business chats, kids playing sports and loitering, and best of all, people of all ages UNABASHEDLY making-out... standing up, sitting on the park-bench, lying on the grass- CRAZY! We're talking heavy petting, here! I seriously felt lonely when I was running- where was my boyfriend so I could fit in and make-out, too. ha.

enjoying the afternoon
the paper and the little dog... what could be better?

The river runs through it
...except I think this is man-made

even the guys enjoy the ducks
... and really what they're looking at are the huge ass fish in the river. I couldn't believe it 1.5 foot long fish (and lots of small ones) in there

I was surprised when I looked at this picture and not one couple on those benchs where making-out. people are making out everywhere in this park!
