We flew into Palermo, then took a coach ride across Sicily to Syracuse. After a trip up Mount Etna, we took the Intercity Notte train overnight to Milan complete with a ferry ride for both us <em>and</em> the train. We followed this with four nights in Milan, complete with a trip to the Leonardo da Vinci experience.</p> <p>Excitingly, we also travelled with our neighbour and sometime quizmaster Brian. He&rsquo;s the other handsome devil in all these photos!</p> <p>Back in January 2017 we went to Italy for a weekend, which I wrote about on the blog as <a href="https://mattischrome.com/posts/a-little-trip-to-italy/">a little trip to Italy</a>. This, by comparison, was a big trip to Italy. So big in fact it requires multiple posts, this is the first of three.</p>
