In the excellent company of "Asterix and Obelix" we arrive in Milan by train..

Duomo di Milano - after standing in a long line finally witnessing the majestic sunlight seeping in through the stained glass windows - mysterious and enlightening, the high pillars, statues..

Window shopping & slurping on gelato in Grand Galleria Vittorio Emanuele..

The Italian Lunch - a tad-bit overhyped -- Lukas makes better Risotto any day.. 

Chiesa Santa Maria del Carmine - a hidden gem offering peace in a very busy and fashionable city of Milan..

The immense brick wall lined with battlements and central tower of 15th century Castello Sforzesco..

Parco Sempione: an Oasis amidst the busy city: home to turtles, birds, a myriad of footpaths, wooded areas and also some good gelatos..

Hopping on & off some really old Trams

Walking back to Milano-Central, sitting outside and watching the hectic world go by before boarding the train back home..
