pix NYC to Milan jetlagged

SLIDESHOW here
check some pix on the above link-

below thumbnails gallery


jetlagged cuz i left at 6 pm and got to milan at 2 am NYC time -
look for a local cell phone sim card - find a citibank atm where i can get euros for cheap =

fancy pastry shop -
amazing croissants only .9 cents - in nyc would cost 3.5 bucks and be not nearly as good -
i notice things i used to NOT notice -

the weather is grey and overcast -
i have the jetlag daze - 24 hours with no sleep -

alitalia sucked but the wine was free - and made the uncomfortable seat more bearable -
the tv screen was fuzzy - i thought my eyesight got suddenly worse -
watched the latest spike lee movie - i knew everystreet in it.

i watched the fog of war on my macbook - and i realized my eyesight is still 20/20

6.5 years later - mmm
strange
but i lived here 33 years -

cappuccinos are so good. 1.20 euros - they are not overheated over steamed like in nyc -
the coffee is more smooth - less bitter than in nyc -
in NY only at nobu i had an espresso that tasted like t tastes here
and at some cheap pizza joint on bedford where a southern guy
from irpinia makes it himself.

I like the courtyards and the communal gardens here -
i need to rest and get around shoot more.
