A four hour train ride away from Rome is Milan, Italy.  A majority of our trip was spent in Milan because Domingo's brothers and sisters live here.  It is a cute city and you can see everything in a whole day.  The main attraction there is the massive Cathedral Duomo.  There a lot of foreigners strolling through Duomo Square as well.  Like Paris, London, and New York City, Milan is one of the fashion capitals of the world.  You can window shop or splurge at Galleria Vittorio Emanuele.  Milan is also really close to Switzerland and France so you can take a train to those places.  We took a day trip to the famous Lake Como where many celebrities have lakeside houses like George Clooney.  Milan isn't as crazy as Rome or Venice but it is still a great city to visit!
