July 8-9: Milan!

Milan is super gorgeous. Here are pictures.

There was a ton of graffiti when I came in but maybe that was just because I was walking through a university neighborhood. 

Park, obvs

The Duomo was magnificent. Normally Gothic architecture isn't my super favorite but holy hell. The Duomo was amazing. And huge. I don't know if I managed to capture how absurdly large and magnificent it was. 


People for scale


Dead holy person. This is a 100% okay and legit thing to do with this person's body. 






It always weirds me out when Europeans pull out the native American stuff but I guess it's no different from Americans pulling out the gypsy stuff

White people doing an Indian dance thing. I may have been primed by a conversation about cultural appropriation on facebook. 

More gelato, natch. The lady gave me the wrong flavor but I was too chickenshit to say anything (with sufficient force). 

Finally went to a museum with some contemporary art! I got excited by the math ones


This one was neat because the shadows shifted depending on the angle you looked at it

Pretty sure this is a belly button

Also belly buttons




Super creeps

Leonardo da Vinci. I have yet to actually make it in to one of the da Vinci museums


Dude tied these around my worst and then made me pay for them. It was the worst. Motherfucker wanted 5 euros for these. I have him 2.

Apparently The Last Supper is housed in Milan but you have to but tickets in advance and it's super expensive and you only get like 15 minutes. Close by though, there is a church which is few to enter and had lots of nice art on the walls. 




A scene I actually know

Not quite /the/ last supper, but I guess it's /a/ last supper


Restoration demonstration?

 The church connected to a really nice archeological museum that was way cheap and had a delightful old man who did not speak English. I think being old and friendly and not speaking English automatically makes you delightful
A map of Milan or a game of Settlers?

More belly button

Chillin'


Really fucking creepy

It's an Art

There was background music here. I'm not sure if it was live or not but it sure did seem to involve a lot of intermittent coughing




Pats on the head for everyone!
