The Cathedral of Milan was filled with all sorts of quirky character...






Apparently there was a children's festival in the piazza that day, so the area was lively and packed...




Most people know that I'm terrified of heights...therefore getting the above picture required a whole series of pictures of my height-induced whining and hysteria...


We finally reached the roof of the Duomo after climbing the small stairs literally attached to the back of the facade's pointed spires. And when they say the roof, they mean the roof, sloped and all. I managed to make it up here and this was my permanent vantage point, as I didn't move...
