Piazza de la Liberty, Milan by rensala

Piazza de la Liberty, Milan

Have you ever had a couple of horrible days? My phone (and life line to the outside works) was stolen from my restaurant table when I was quietly contemplating life in this beautiful city. I’d been editing a few shots I’d taken at the 900 Museum which I will have to backtrack and add when I’m back home as no access to ICloud now. It’s meant many hours of trapsing to police stations, Apple stores and to buy SIM cards that work. Without a phone it’s really hard to communicate and get anything done. And all this on my own as hubby got stuck in Marrakesh as his flight back to Milan got cancelled. And knock on effect missing our flight down South today. BUT as we say ‘let this be the worse’, I’m in Italy and the sun is shining. Thanks to Ross I’m able to reconnect with 365 as I was having withdrawal symptoms. Lots to sort out when I get home, but in the meantime I’m on holiday and I have yet another new IPhone 13 Pro.
Superb shot. Apple could yse it for advertising.
Too bad for the situation.

Oh poo, what a bally nuisance. Think you've had your share of bad luck now - here's to a trouble free rest of the trip.
June 5th, 2022  
Oh dear, I can feel your pain especially being on your own. I hope everything works out and you can enjoy the rest of your holiday

Events like this are horrible when they happen but later make for a good story.

Now, within a week or 2, you are the second person having this horror story in Italy, such a pain. But let it go. Enjoy the rest of the holiday

Oh know how dreadful for you. You are obviously very resourceful and hopefully you can settle back into having a good time. Great shot btw.

At least with Apple and a cloud backup all your apps and data are back as soon as. Nice shot

@johnfalconer thanks - but not if you don’t have a clue about passwords! Have to wait til I get back to sort things out. So very few apps to play with now

@monikozi @boxplayer @yaorenliu @wakelys @joansmor @kjarn many thanks - hubby getting on flight now to get back to Milan so I’m off out exploring

I like your positivity in the circumstances. And I agree with you - why waste a holiday, especially since you can do nothing about it? My son was in Amsterdam for a conference a couple of years ago - somebody stole his mobile from under his nose and a few minutes later somebody stole his lap top.

Oh, sorry to hear things are going so poorly. But I love your positivity - you are on holiday in a beautiful place, hope you can get some enjoyment out of it

People are just evil these days. Glad you're going to enjoy yourself in spite of it.
June 5th, 2022  
Sorry for your bit of bad luck. Very frustrating indeed, but glad you are still on vaca and hopefully able to enjoy the rest of it worry free.

What a bummer about your phone… hang in there. The pic makes me think of how shattered we are without our devices.

@kvphoto thanks - that’s exactly how I felt when I took it - there was a fountain of water behind the glass and the logo just beckoned me. It really reflected how I was feeling
June 5th, 2022  
oh no!
June 5th, 2022  
So sorry to hear you news, glad you are getting things sorted.
June 5th, 2022  
Oh dear what a time you have had. Hope things get sorted and your situation improves soon.
June 5th, 2022  
That's awful - but great attitude!
June 6th, 2022  
Oh no! But seems like you are back with a new phone!

A boring vacation is terrible. And you have so many adventures that it will be something to remember.
