7:59 AM, Wednesday, June 18, 2008Milan, Milan, Milan !!!
Hey people, I m back !~ Luckily, din change this flight in vain. Haha.. so happy .. din really had a gd meal in Milan coz everywhere I went , all I could see are only Italian restaurants !!! I had pasta & pizza meals until I wanna vomit soon...Anyway, I MUST show u ppl my hotel room ! It is damn shiok with free Wi-Fi internet access.. The name is called The Chedi Hotel. Heard dat this hotel is one of the best luxury hotel in Milan.
Taken a few pics of my room...
The bathroom is damn spacious ! Think I can dance inside .. There is also a standing shower area which I could take a pic of it coz the bathrm is too big.. lol...
Hmmz.... wonder why muz they gimmi such a big "er-hmm" picture besides my bed !~
Nvm.. I treat dis as ART..
Notice there is another toilet-bowl shaped like thingy besides the toilet-bowl?? That is suppose to be used to clean ur butt after u r done wif ur watever business u have to do ... Normally only hotels like Japan, India & certain Eurporean countries have it ... Japan ones are the BEST !!! Coz theirs got speed selection and temperature of the water that can be adjusted to ur comfort .. haha...
Okie.. this is the tram we took to the City ... Loos not beri fantastic on the outside but the ride was still considered to be pretty smooth ...
YES YES YES !!! This is where I wanna go !!! The Duomo Cathedral in Milan city. Seen dis is quite a number of travel shows .
As quoted fr the Internet ,
"Gothic Duomo
There is no better place to begin a tour of Milan than at its spiritual hub, the Duomo, described by Mark Twain as "A poem in marble". Situated at the very heart of Milan, the Duomo is one of the largest gothic churches in the world, 12 thousand square meters large it can hold one and a half football fields.
The Duomo was begun in 1386 but not given its finishing touches until 1813. Since it took almost five centuries before completion, the most beautiful Gothic cathedral in the world gathers admirable different styles: Gothic, Renaissance and Neoclassical. The building most starling feature is the extraordinary roof, with its 135 spires, gargoyles and innumerable marble statues."

Sth interesting to share.. tot the Chief was joking when he mentioned about having coffee at Gucci ... BUT... there is really a Gucci Cafe in Milan .. Look !!!
Looks good , rite~ Imagine the yandao Gucci staff wearing black powersuit & make ur fav Latte for ya.. Lol... Cool ~~~
Anyway, all of us did not went to the Gucci Cafe.. coz how can we not go & try the local famous Italian Gelato ?? hehe... the Chief brought us here ... Look at how attractive each flavour is .... Costs 2.50 euros for 2 scoops. Pretty worth it coz the texture is different fr what we find in spore. Their fruits selection gelato is the best, namely Mango and Strawberry... i forgot what's the name though.. some Italian name which I m bad at memorising...
Keke.. tat's all I hv gt to update. The profile of the Italian people are abit different from those from other Eurporean countries like London & France... But I'm no going into details .. wait my company send me an offical warning email then I m dead.. haha...
