February 23-25th, 2013
We left for Milan around 3 pm on Saturday. What was suppose to be a 5 hour bus ride turned into over 9 hours since there was a snowstorm and traffic was slow. We arrived to Milan at 12:30 in the morning and began a search for our hotel, was definitely an experience trying to walk through the snow with our suitcase and get to our hotel. We made it though and I was ready to crash as soon as we checked in. Sunday morning I had breakfast, coffee, eggs, and toast... they had toast! I am so "deprived" of America breakfast food! Yum, so good! The staff at the Hotel were awesome, I walked by and they were like "Good Morning Melissa". (so cool)
After mass we were walking the streets and it just was magical. People were playing beautiful music while we walked the roads, I couldn't get over how beautiful it was! It was cold and rainy so we went to find coffee. (All the churches in Italy are freezing because they don't heat them.) It was fashion week and we were determined to get into a Runway show. We kept asking questions of where the show was and how to get in. Everyone said its impossible to get in, but we kept trying. After getting some information from different people we walked up through the line of people waiting to get in, telling the people we had to get inside, and they let us in!! Crazy! The show was incredible, definitely something I will probably only get to experience once. I was freaking out inside but kept my cool. We got invited to an after party called an Open Ceremony for Adidas, which of course we went to and met some designers! It was such an incredible night that I wont forget. Milan was good to us. So greatful that we were able to have such a fantastic experience!
