Milano, Italy



I apologize for the delay in this post but I am so excited to finally share this post with the great adventure I had last weekend! It's rather a long story though so I am posting the beautiful pictures of Milano (pronounced: mee-lawn-oh) first and then feel free to continue reading.. Or not :) 

The Duomo: a massive cathedral that occupies a large part of the main piazza in Milano. Larger and more ornate than even Notre Dame in France. It technically can hold 40,000+ people in its cavernous interior brimming with paintings, history, and entombed popes, all visible by candlelight. Fun fact: The Duomo was built in the 14th century and consists of 3,400+ marble statues.
