I have to admitt that I was a bit tired of Milan when I came back a couple of days before new years... I got even more tired when school started and I was in my bed with fever... It was so hard getting back on track.. Even harder to appreciate the things that fascinated me about Milan before I went back to Sweden for the holidays. Well those I told you about in my last post. I just couldnt pace with the rythm of Milan...
BUT. I also had loads of fun before I got ill and all that nonsens. Even if most of the people from Milan seem to evacuate the city during the days before-, and on new years eve!
Here is the proof for you doubters!
Piazza Duomo Monday 02 a.m. Dinner at the Globe here on piazza 5 Giornate
(notice that its not completely empty despite the late hour)
Not everybody let Milan down...Some people even came here especially to celebrate new years!
Dinner at the Globe. The magic of La Scala...
...About today
This day was the first day I felt that feeling again.. My love for this city, the culture of it and the people... Maybe it took a while but this feeling was worth waiting for! Even with all the traffic and noise this city is so beautiful, in its own special way...
The weather is lovely.. ( in Sweden we see the blue sky last time in the end of August, and then after that in April again. If we re really lucky that is!)
We re having sunshine for the third day now... I walked up on Viale Montenero. A street thats connecting porta Romana and piazza Cinque Giornate... A quiet boring street with traffic, tram trails and/but a lot of different restaurants and bars.
It seems like people here doesnt notice all the noise from cars or buses. They doesnt see the dirt on the sidewalks.. Doesnt hear drivers blow their horns and yell something in italian to each other.. They just smile take another sip from their espressos as nothing in the whole world could ruin them enjoyning this lovely afternoon...
...And this is what inspires me and what I love about this city!
So basically what I m telling you is that I ll be back to the ME that u all are use to! ( And that you all love I hope)
