Italy 2021, Part Two: Milano

After Firenze, we headed to Milano and hoped that the new rules for vaccine passport requirements would still let us do what we had planned. Loradona and I both carried our vaccine information every where we went, and thankfully, the people were pretty understanding of our lack of fancy QR codes.

Not to say the changing rules weren't stressful. In fact, it's in Milano that I start to feel a pain in my ribs, for those keeping track at home... 

Our first day in Milano, we headed to see The Last Supper and the Santa Maria delle Grazie. 

Italy 2021, Part One: Firenze

In July, Italy changed their rules regarding quarantine, relaxing the requirements for vaccinated visitors from a few countries, including Canada and the US. Less than a month later, Loradona and I were each on a plane, heading to Rome.

These next few blog posts are going to be chronicling my trip. I've decided to separate them out based on city. So, while we flew into Rome, this first post will be about Florence.

To give Mom and Dad a chance to do some work, Loradona and I headed up north by ourselves. 

The fast trains are awesome, and gave us a chance to play some rummy with the Hogwarts cards Kyler gave me in preparation for this trip. How awesome is he, by the way? Supporting me going off without him, staying home and taking care of the kiddos, and buying me cards.
