After an early sleep, last night I went to sleep before the sun set; slept from 20:30 🕣 to 6 a.m. The front desk clerk was asleep when I left. I managed quite profoundly to tackle the metro.

My train to Milano left at 8 a.m. and I was crowded into a first class reserved car with many other Americans (which I didn’t mind). The train is huge though, and I have a feeling that French efficiently is leaving 3/4 of it empty.

We are in Italy 🇮🇹 already and going through many tunnels. Weather is cool, foggy and grey. I forgot to mention the weather to boyfriend who is probably expecting a Heat Wave, as was Helen.

When I get to Milano I’ve decided to go to a nice hotel and book two nights. Hopefully there will be airport transfer, then boyfriend and I can stay for tomorrow too, resting and catching up on our sparks!
