From LA to Milan

So I am just back from another trip to Los Angeles. Explored the area around 3rd and Fairfax, West Hollywood, Pacific Palisades and the beach at PCH and Topanga. I really love LA, but HATE the over crowding and people who can only talk about the "biz". May elaborate later on my favorite past times while there, shopping and house hunting.
I am now planning my trip to Italy, I have 1 month to finalize plans before I fly out on October 6th. Seriously, planning this trip has been the most difficult of my travels. So far the plan is Milan, then Bellagio on Lake Como and then the Italian Riviera.
