Hello! We haven't been able to blog at all in the last few days because we can't find wireless internet anywhere. There are a lot of internet cafes, but they cost a lot and we have to use the computers that they provide.

Anyway, we took a day trip from Milan to Como on Monday. Como is a small town on Lake Como in Northern Italy. It is only about 45 minutes from Milan by train. It was a beautiful place, surrounded by mountains. We had a nice lunch by the water, walked around town, and took a steep train up to the top of a mountain to check out the view. From the top, we could see the Alps, as well many little towns around the lake. The houses in Como and on the mountain are spectacular! It is hard to believe that they were able to build such large houses on such a steep slope all those years ago. We watched the sun set from the top of the mountain and can't believe that some people get to see that every day. Check out the pictures!
