Vacation - Part II: MILAN / BERGAMO


So, part II of the pre-trip checklist starts now:

To Do while in Milano
* La Cenacolo (The Last Supper), Santa Maria Delle Grazie Church, central Milan
* Parco Sempione (beautiful midtown park much like Central Park, in NYC)
* the Brera, Navigli-Porta Ticinese, and San Siro districts
* too many great restaurants to count, including:


Paper Moon, Dice Corso Como Cafe, Al basilico fresco, Shambala, Sushi Hiro, Old Fashion Cafe, La Bitta -- you can't really go too wrong eating in Milan!


I'd also like to scale the top of the Duomo/the main Cathedral (above) - it is pretty much the symbolic heart of Milan - to see the cityscape (on clear days you can see as far as the Ligurian coast!)

Of course I'll be headed to my friend's wedding in Gorgonzola, with the after-party/reception taking place here.

I will let you all know how the hotel is.

** DETAILS/WISH LIST FOR BRATISLAVA, VIENNA, and NEW YAWK to come : )
