RTW "The Gordon Gladwin Tour"

Sick of trying to use our United's frequent flier points, we decided to use them all up in one round the world trip.

Whirlwind Tour Of Milan - Duomo

Chris in the Piazza Del Duomo

So since we didn't get to the hotel until after Midnight we missed out on our romantic evening in Milan. Undeterred though we were unfashionably up at 6am and off on a whirlwind tour of the city before our 11am train to Verona.

The minute you step out into Italy, it's like an art school flashback. You know you took a test about what you're looking at, you're just trying to locate the brain cell that retained its name... Ahhh Duomo...

Plus side to an early wake up call is the lack of other tourists... If you know anything about either of us you'll know that this is quite the achievement by the way.

Church door bouncers where keeping a close eye on everyone heading into the Cathedral & since Nicola had her hooker gear on (shoulders bared & all...) we were blocked. Thankfully she had the foresight to bring her coat, which came in handy later when we stealth like wandered around the interior taking sneaky photographs.
