The sun and the clouds

A few nights ago there was another of the most amazing sunsets ever. This is the pictures from Matt's balcony.

Yesterday the fog moved in. We have been hearing out this fog. It comes for the entire month of November. It was sort of a challenge driving home last night.

Milan

At the train station about to head out to Milan for the weekend.

The castle in Milan.

The Gallaria di Vittorio Emmanuele. He was the last king of Italy before the Royal family was exiled.

The Duomo di Milano at dusk.

The Duomo di Milano had so much detail it was truly amazing.

The golden angel on the top of the Duomo di Milano.

Piero and Massimo getting ready to go out on the town.

Matt, Carlo, Piero, me and Massimo (Matt's cousin).

Legend has it that a princess, in a land far far away, was attacked my a bull. She saved herself by kicking him in the balls. Now there is a tile image of that bull in the Gallaria di Vittorio Emmanuele, and you are suppose to put your heel on his balls, and spin three times, for good luck.

We went shopping... not buying, just shopping.

This purse was priced at €3,000. At the time I was impressed with this price, but then we wandered by Versace...

This fur coat, €42,000. That's right, not 42 hundred, but 42 thousand. And yes, this is more expensive (buy quite a bit) than my house in Pittsburgh.

Venice

I think the pictures say it all. Truly one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It was magical.
