On Sunday, 18 October 1931, Baba took the group by train on a trip to the Italian Alps. At Varese, they changed to a mountain funicular, and went up the steep gradient, enjoying the marvelous scenery.

 

After returning to the city, that evening, they went to the Odeon Theater in Milan, where they saw a film (The Divorcee). Two days later (20th), they drove to Lake Como for a short pleasant stay.

 

 

* There are no photos of Meher Baba taken in the Como area on his visit.

 

This visit occurred a couple of days prior to Meher Baba boarding a ship the

SS Roma in Genoa for New York.  All of these visits occurred of his 1st visit to the West.
