Milano here we come

Our last morning in Bellagio. We decided to put the car on the ferry and cross Lake Como to Cadenabbia where the road back to Milan was a bit wider than the one we drove in on. There were still a few spots they perhaps need to work on and the pedestrians need to be more careful when Vanessa is one the road!
De-hired the car and found the right trains to get us to Milan – a miracle! Once here we checked into our Hotel and went walking. To say we had a pizza lunch is a little understated. It came with so many extras we didn’t know where to start – and delicious!
In the afternoon we spent some time at the Museum of Natural Science and were intrigued with all the different mineral formations on show, then into fossils and dinosaurs, finishing with a sketch pad in hand, intrigued with pattern formations of flora fossils.
This evening Clare arrived into Milan from Leeds, UK. We’ve had dinner together with a bottle of Chianti.
Tomorrow we’ll be exploring the Historic Centre of Milan.
