The car ride from the Milan International Airport to the hotel booked for her by the Milan World Expo Association should have taken just an hour. Although Milan was a fashion capital of the world and had a highly dense population, the transport infrastructure was very developed and convenient. As a result, the journey went smoothly and they didn't meet any traffic jams and the likes.
However, because they had taken the long, scenic route, it was already 5 PM by the time they arrived at the hotel. The entire journey took a whole two hours.

She handed over all her electronic devices to the temporary care of the organizers, who then provided her with a specialized mobile phone and computer. Although the organizers did not go as far as putting surveillance on those gadgets, the electronics supplied all had restricted capabilities.
