Italy is my favorite country in the world. New York is where I wanted to live as a child , Italy ( Regions of Tuscany or Umbria ) are where I would love to retire.
Day 1 in Milan. We checked in at the Bulgari. A true test of a hotel is what they do when they are in trouble. With that internet down , printers not working the hotel was in trouble. But with a smiling face and no stress visible they handed it like complete pros.
We had the 4 th floor room , garden view. Very nice.
Candy and a tamarind drink at the lobby.
Drinks at the ever popular bar with outdoor seating. Felt like an oasis in a busy city. Loved it.
We did lunch at convivum restaurant. It overlooks this piazza. Everything is gorgeous here.
We dined at the 2 Michelin star restaurant , Seta. We really enjoyed our meal. The lamb was one of the best I have ever eaten. ( At the Mandarin Oriental )
Day 1 – a success !! We also went to the gym – so that was great. Could slightly justify the over eating.
