Pescara to Milan in One Day with The Frecciarossa Train | Abruzzo Vlog Ep 6 

That cathedral is absolutely stunning! The city is gorgeous!

I'll be flying into Milan in Dec for a few days before moving on, my first time there with any real time to investigate. Reading the book Beneath A Scarlet Sky made me want to check it out more, how they were able to protect the cathedral during the war. I was only there for a few hours back in 2001, my first trip to IT. I don't think I knew Starbucks had come to IT. I love the trains too. Wonder if I'll have time to get down to Abruzzo. Wouldn't have thought the train ride would be that short!

Thank you, I didn't realise that the centre of Milan was so beautiful, the architecture is amazing.

Thank you nice to see the cathedral again, last in Milan in 2019

Beautiful architecture! The center of Milan and the Cathedral is AMAZING!! Now I want a cup of Lavazza!!

Hi Rino - thank you for this postcard from Milan! I have always wanted to visit the cathedral there - such an amazing building. We have some great ones here too - the best are Durham, York, Lincoln, Winchester, Salisbury, Canterbury, and Wells. The architecture is of course different to what you will find in Italy and elsewhere. I have seen the Frecciarossa when the train track runs alongside the autostrada. You can't miss them in that impressive red livery. It's a great way to travel mainly because you can get up and stretch your legs and they arrive in the centre of town! BTW - the station at Pescara looks much bigger than I expected. Best regards

Grazie da Texas come sempre

Very beautiful stations! Kind of funny story when I took a cruise to Alaska with family back in 1997, I would disembark the ship on port days and look for coffee. The coffee on the ship was alright, but there were no starbucks anywhere. So I would walk around these towns like Ketchikan, Skagway, Homer, etc. mostly smaller towns with some historical significance. But the only coffee I found was Lavazza, they had signs outside of a few cafes, and there were not many cafes in some of these villages. I don't think they knew what they were doing making Italian coffee and probably not using the moka pot either.

Love trains! Yet another thing to live about Italy is the wonderful public transportation systems (especially trains). Really, REALLY wish the US had such systems! Enjoyed the video, and thank you for taking the trouble to share a little of your trip when you were busy with business!

Boy, I drink any coffee but nothing beats Italian coffee. also welcome back to Milan

Great video Rino! It’s nice to see how easy it is to get to Milan. Is there a similar train that goes to Florence?

Great video Rino, it is always a great experience to see Italy through actual Italians not from some wanna be digital nomad youtubers:)

Grazie Rino di portarci insieme a te in questa bella gita a Milano. Anche a me piace molto la città di Milano. La stazione è un eccellente esempio dell'architettura degli edifici pubblici della fine dell'ottocento e del primo quarto del novecento. Hai fatto l'andata e il ritorno e hai attraversato tutta l'Italia in entranbe le direzioni lo stesso giorno, quindi è molto comodo. Quanto costa quel tipo di viaggio in treno?

Does Italo go to Pescara?

Just wondering, I may have missed it, but how long did the train ride take? Also, personally I don’t care for Milan, but I loved Bergamo. Bergamo was a very nice Surprise. ❤ And of course, while in Milan I had to visit the Starbucks place which was at the time wall-to-wall people and long lines everywhere so after about 20 minutes I turned around and I left, without coffee but with bad taste in my mouth.😂That was in Dec 2019
