After what seemed like forever, but was actually a period of three years, we booked another flight, and returned to Italy.  During that three-year period, we struggled with living in a changed New  York City, for the city was not the same after the COVID pandemic.  It was time to get away!  We were going to start our trip with a few days in Milan.  We rented an apartment in the area just to the north of Chinatown.  It was an area we were not very familiar with, and so, we arrived, ready to explore.

The Chiesa di San Giuseppe della Pace dates from 1971, and was built when the church across the street, the Chiesa di San Giuseppino, was closed.

At Via Piero della Francesca, #47, you will find the nightclub known as the Gattopardo Cafè.  This club is housed in a now deconsecrated church, the Chiesa di San Giuseppino,  which dates from the 1800s.

Next up: We continue to explore, with a visit to the Chiesa di Santa Maria di Lourdes, and much more!
