My second full day in Milan

I studied Atlas Obscura so had a list of things to check out. Firstly though a cappuccino and a croissant.
other things I saw on the way - a church?
artwork
this is what I came to see.

i think this was a book library. It was open and no-one was there.
Then i looked at the shopping 
Candles €45
There were beanie  €40 which were  40% recycled plastic. Evi would pay that?
a beautiful glass staircase up to the next floor. 
these are shops. They're showcases.
there's always huge queues to go inside this Duomo Cathedral. I don't do queues anymore.
i love looking at these. All different and in almost every square.
The next place on my list was L.O.V.E.

it was in the shade and I hear music and look what was on the other side?
it was a shame to see her singing to no-one.
And then I went past this magnificent huge building with a huge queue. 
It's a Starbucks!!
not sure who he is.
having a rest
This was my next place. It was truly amazing. I took lots of photos.

hard to believe it's all bones. They're held in with wire.

isn't this so cute.
it was shut!
i was trying to take pictures of smart looking people. A bit difficult hence the back views.
I tried very hard to find this place but couldn't. I was in the right area. There were 2 pillars and a huge effort entry which was closed so maybe it's was inside. ☹️

pretty
this was an amazing sight. Lots of music. Lots of young men cycling- often just in their back wheel. The first rider had three pink smoke. Obviously for something but I hadn't a clue.
looked nice.

Interesting.
By this time I'd walked many kms. It was getting so crowded. If forgotten it was Saturday. Tribes to leave the crowds.
Home for packing, watching Six Feet Under and then dinner of ministrone soup, creme caramel and 2 shots of vodka.

  1. I love the fact you are using atlas obscura - brilliant site with so many strange places to see. You are now The Satorialist - capturing street style, italian style. That coat was incredible. So so smart. Puts us to shame.
