I've made it safe and sound to Milan. My second flight seemed to pass in no time at all. I caught some wonderful sights of snow-capped mountains on the few occasions that the clouds cleared away. I decided not to sleep on my second flight to make sure that I was tired enough to get a good nights rest tonight. That may have been a mistake as I'm sitting here eating dinner feeling a little shaky. I managed to hop on the wrong train from the airport to the city, and I also managed to lock myself out of my hotel safe (staff had to help me regain access). But I was able to recover both mishaps without too much drama. I heard from the BBC tonight that it has been snowing on the Alps. That may impact my ability to get to Grand Saint Bernard Pass. Also, I've had no luck getting tickets to see the Last Supper. I'm pretty heart broken. As I never give up, I will try again tomorrow in person.Read more
TravelerHi Carmel, glad you arrived safely and hopefully all your mishaps are out of the way and things improve. If you get your see The Last Supper it is definitely a very memorable experience. I look forward to your daily footprints.
Carmel CarlsenThanks Alex. I don't think I'll be as lucky as you were to get your tickets the night before. But I'll do my best tomorrow to see if I can get in.
