Unirsi il lavoro !!!!!

Cultural Experience Assignment:
      Yesterday as you know from the previous blog below,  my team and I were given clues in search of specific destinations.  There where two clues, the first was just for our group and the second was for everyone.

  CLUE 1 :  Questo  interessante  monumento  a  Milano  e`  stato  influenzato  dal                                  
                   francese.  La costruzione  e`  inizata  in un  tempo  di  Guerra,  ma  e`  stato completato  e
                   dedicato  alla pace. 
                  (This interesting monument in Milan has been influenced by the French                                 
                  construction started in a time of war, but was completed and dedicated to peace)
    
          This clue lead us to the  Arch of Peace in the Sempione park:


This Arch is located in the Castle Park Parco Sempione, located behind the castle. To get to this arch, we followed a path in a straight line through the park.     Napoleon Bonaparte was who began to build this arch in 1907, during the Italian campaign, as a new entrance to milan from France. 

CLUE 2:  Bullseye
This clue lead us to the lo  corso como located on Via Enrico Tazzoli street.  www.10corsocomo.com

  I am very happy to say we found them both!   We went through a series of events to find them, such as the hail storm, and running back to the castle after we had just been there and saw the arch, but the pictures below (in the blog before this) as well as the video were worth it. 



                              All in all, there was a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow ! !  . . . . . .
The rainbow appeared after we found both places (how ironic)
