Music on the Metro

We got on the metro (I'm becoming quite used to this whole public transit thing) this morning on the way to the Duomo (I'll post pictures later, but I recommend googling it, AMAZING!) and at the second stop these two men hopped on with their instruments. One had an accordion and one had a violin and the started playing Ode to Joy. They stayed on for another stop, and as the sound filled the entire metro the usually brisk and formal Milanese men and ladies started smiling. The men finished up and went through to collect money and hopped off to catch the next one. It was such a fabulous way to start off the morning!

Ciao for now!

    Hello Sweet Bella,

    I am already smiling thinking of your musical gift this morning. Ode to Joy is such a classic that inspires the heart and welcomes smiles. It has been raining non-stop today...but that did not stop a wake-boarder on the lake! Can't wait to see pictures of your apartment building and room.

    Ciao!
    Love, Mom
