We all got up after a good nights sleep had some breakfast and then headed to Milan. There we met Emma our guide for the day. She took us around the city which was very pretty but the highlight of the tour was going to see The Last Supper by Leonardo DaVinci. It was amazing and so strange to see something so famous up close to be there with just the team and our guides alone in this room with one of the most famous art works of all time. We were then given a tour of the castle in Milan and free time to find our own lunch. The team broke up and explored on our own, so far I have not heard any complaints about the food and I think its fun exploring and finding your own little restaurant. After lunch and some shopping where Kyle bought a rugby ball (I don't really know why) we made our way to the game. We didn't have the best result we lost but hopefully we learned some things and will be better for it. We then came back to Como where we had dinner and then time to explore Como a little more by ourselves. Sleep this night was a little harder for a lot of the guys with the time change and everything.
