We had probably about three hours in Milan traveling between Florence and Barcelona which Teesh was keen to make the most of. Like Zurich we couldn’t really venture too far away from the train station so we basically had time only to visit the major square. To be honest the last time I was in Milan nearly two years I didn’t spend that much time in Milan itself anyway!

What I didn’t notice last time was the obsession people seemed to have with the pigeons. They were everywhere in the square near the Duomo to almost infestation type levels. It didn’t help that enterprising people were going about the square selling bird feed to crazy tourists.

Not sure you could really call it a celeb spot (we tried very hard to find some models) but we did see Giorgio Schultze, the European spokesperson for New Humanism. Obviously he was campaigning for something. He looked really friendly is all I can say!
