arrival in milan

We arrived safely at 10 am local time. We are tired but in good spirits! We walked about 2 miles after a 2 hour nap. For you seinfeld fans we crossed costanza street. We already had our first cup of capuccino. The people here are friendly. Tonight it's wine and gelatto for dinner!

I got the Euros today so we are set for a couple of days to kick off our trip.

Not much new to add. We will start packing on Friday.

The next post will be from Milan next week Monday.

See you then!

The Final Week!

T-Minus 10 Days...

This weekend I need to get electrical converters and luggage tags.

Michelle wants to bring our dog Star but she doesn't bark in Italian. Also,
capuccino doesn't sit well with Star.

Very Tired...

T-Minus 11 days...

Michelle and I are both very tired on this Thursday night.  

Exams and grading are taking their toll on me while Michelle is not used
to the early 5 am calls for CNN.

Italy can't come soon enough!

Ambien for the Flight Over

T-Minus 12 days and counting.

We have a prescription for Ambien. The idea is that it will help us sleep on the 8-9 hour flight to Milan. We've been told that we will wake up from our slumber ready to tour the Italian boot.

On the to do list: electricity converters and a few Euros to get us started.

Ciao!
