[Don Plumley]

The Duomo (huge Cathedral) in the Piazza is worth a look. You can walk on the roof - and get a sense for how much smaller folks were back then (low arches, etc.) Unless you are a starimaster fiend, there is an elevator on the south side of the building for a few Euro. Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" is in Milan, often a long line to get in to see it. You are very close to Lake Como - It's a beautiful area.

What Joe said about small kids/gypsies - not dangerous but keep you wits about you. It's easy to look like a lost American target, uh, tourist(keeps looking at a map).

Have a great time!
