The big adventure!

No, it wasn't a trip to one of the fashion houses although I did a lot of window shopping and dreaming :) It was my trip on the Metropolitina. I tried it yesterday to get to the train station as I wanted to go to Lake Como. I got on the train and then had that feeling in the pit of my stomach- I was going the wrong way and completely confused. Where is my husband when I need him? He is such a wiz when it comes to navigating train lines.


I disembarked from the train and exited the train station. Thankfully, I have an terrific sense of direction. I started walking and lo and behold there was the train station. I proceeded on to Lake Como without incident.

Lake Como was very picturesque. Just beautiful with the little towns on either side. Unfortunately, no sighting of George Clooney.

Today, I tried my luck at the Metro again and voila I was able to navigate it. I was a woman on a mission as I still can't get a good Internet connection at the hotel. So, I took the Metro to the only Internet cafe (as far as I can tell) in Milan. I am hoping that my Internet luck changes soon. I feel completely lost without my instant access. Ciao!
