After our beautiful day yesterday, we were ready to face the masses and do what one should always do while in Milan - SHOP!
Had a big brekky and set off on the underground on a mission to shop til we dropped. We popped up from the underground in the middle of the shopping sector and visited every shop on the shady side of the road and then all the way back on the other side. All the shops we know - Guess, Benetton, Swarovski, etc and all the ones we had never heard of. H&M is big here and we scanned every floor. Stopped for lunch and then shopped some more.
The grand total of our shopping day was 9.95 Euro for 4 pairs of sox for Peter and two T-Shirts for me!! We have nothing to worry about in Adelaide for shopping, we have it all.
We came back to our hotel at about 3ish and off loaded our goodies (lol), had a rest and then went over to the train station to check out the shops over there, that's when I bought the two T-shirts. After a nice meal at a nearby restaurant, we strolled the shops near our hotel and I bought a dress for 13 Euros from a little chinese couple who had a tiny little shop and the change room was out the back with all the spare stock. Making our grand total for shopping 22.95 Euros which equals $27.00
You can never tell how a day will pan out!
While we had dinner we were remembering back over our holiday and all the places we have stayed and visited and the people we have spoken to. It's been such a good holiday and is hard to believe that within a week we will be food shopping, cooking and cleaning! Tomorrow morning (11am) we leave Milan and go to Rome until Sunday when we catch our flight home. We have heard from Steve and he is arriving in Rome tomorrow as well and is staying at the same hotel as us so we will see him again before he leaves for San Francisco.
Talk to you again in Rome xx (maybe we can do better with our shopping there!)
