Also, no booze on the flight, period. It dehydrates you and thats what you do not need.
Milano is a good place to shop and they have nice shoes, clothes and such there. Do not change much money and pay for everything possible on your Visa/MC (very few places take Am-Ex in Europe) as you get a better exchange rate that way.
Make a copy of your passport and front/back of your licenses/credit cards. Put the copy in a safe place in your room (a safe) or box at the front desk. Put your wallet in your front pocket of your pants and nothing else in your pockets.
If you are suddenly surrounded by a group of children who are getting close to you, they could be gypsies and they are the very best pickpockets there are. They use kids because the tourists do not suspect them. Put your hand in your pants pocket where your wallet is and walk briskly out of their grasp, into a store, restaurant or anywhere.
Other than that, get some grapa and good Italian food and enjoy life!
