Yet another excursion
into Italy with Tania and her mother - the same excuse was used as in
the Florence/Venice trip…visit with family. We did very little of that
and Tania, her mother, her cousin Lorenzo and I headed to downtown
Milano to check out the sites. I
was shocked to see the magnificent Duomo in the center square.
I stepped inside the Duomo and was astonished with the beauty of
the church. Amazingly, this was
the first time in my life that I actually felt the presence of God. Milano is also known
as the fashion capital of the world. We made a trip through the famous
Galleria V. Emmanuelle where all the top-notch shops are located. People
pay an arm and a leg to drink coffee inside of this establishment just
to be seen. Women walk around
like they got a stick shoved up their ass and everyone, more or less,
look like models. According to
Tania, the shops have an end of the year sale where clothes are often up
to 50% off for designer clothes. In Milano, among the rich, it can be
seen as a sin to be wearing last years clothes, hence the large sale at
the end of the year. |

The magnificent Duomo. This thing is freakin’ HUGE! There are countless pigeons in front of the Duomo. A local dude put a bunch of seeds in my hand and I got violated by a group of pigeons. | |||
