Milan

We arrived in Milan by train and was met by Jake's cousin Pete. Pete lived in Milan for years (he now lives in Switzerland though) so was able to show us around. It was nice to have someone to guide us for a change!

The Milan train station
Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, a high-end shopping area with cool glass ceiling
Gorgeous Milan Duomo, the stop here was worth it for seeing this alone.
Leonardo da Vinci, he lived here on and off in his life. His painting "the Last Supper" resides here.
