The Borromean Islands look beautiful. All your photos are lovely but that Glass ceiling in the shopping mall is just breathtaking

My Italian progressed a tiny bit. I had an app I was using to learn the basics a little each day. No one would have understood me, but I was starting to pick out words, especially when they were written. A couple more weeks and I might have been brave enough to try to speak basic sentences. Alas, that will have to wait until our next visit.

We were lucky enough to tour the roof of the cathedral, a place of wonderful views and myriads of individually detailed sculptures. Bit hard on the legs, though. Lots of steps.

Nobody in our group looked into the Galleria shops. But we all craned our necks to gaze at the glass roof.

Had an amazing dinner in some tiny courtyard restaurant. If there’s one thing the Italians do well, it’s good food and drink!

How did your Italian progress during your visit?
