A HOT night in Milan!

We hadn't been to Milan prior to this week (except to use the airport a couple of years ago) so off we trotted.....


to visit the world's first shopping mall...



but note the lack of shopping bags. And trust me don't ask for a beer here, it was the most expensive beer I have ever had!


We even had time to visit the Ferrari store (what else would you do in Milan?)....




before a long lunch at http://www.acena.it/bagutta/....
And then the main event....

San Siro stadium to see Snow Patrol and U2 live on the revolutionary 360ยบ stage...


The stage was fantastic, a cross between a space station and a cactus flower!


Snow Patrol got the crowd warmed up before the Dublin lads arrived....

Nothing prepares you for the noise at a rock concert. I don't think I have ever been physically moved by sound before, truly unbelieveable.












Enjoy...
