24 hours
2 1 /2 hrs sleep
7 hours sleep
LYON, FRANCE
Alpes et haute provence
Last uptdate for the population of Lyon was in 2014 1.3.M
nothing recent
First visit
First impression: Pretty
Its good for a week-end get away
24 hrs in Lyon
Arrival: 11 oclock in my room so its border limit for a visit I need to sleep
Room: hot like a stove ask the cleaning lady to fix the thermostat
result: nothing
conclusion: open the window
time of sleep: 2 hours and a half
Reason: people went to sit in the back of the hotel for a picnic
Nice ! Could not go back to sleep.
Got up and left.
Bus: 1.50 euros one way
Hotel is very far so I needed to take the bus
20 mins to get to the city
20 mins to walk there
I needed to cross a bridge over the Rhone and cross another bridge over the Saone river to go in the old part of Lyon; where I want to go.
The wind is blowing like hell today.
I rushed to take a picture
what?
My camea doesn't work
Now what' s the problem today?
Me and my new camera are not getting along at all.
Shit! Before I left home took some bird pictures and forgot to put the memory chip back inside the camera.
I need to go back in the new town to get one for the day.
Ok it's a go!
Magnific but the lack of sleep makes me feel like shit...
Let's get a nice boost of coffee and sugar and perhaps I will be able to function today...
Upper city everything is there except the Sainte Rita elixir.
COMMUNICATION tower
A nice little cruise could be nice here
BASILICA NOTRE DAME DE FOURRIERE
Here a nice bouchon Lyonnais
Where are the red and white tablecloth?
Where is the sticker with Gignol holding a glass of wine?
Who is Guignol?
An old puppet.
To know if it's an anthentic bistrot called bouchon Lyonnais in Lyon, you need those two items to be identified perhaps in modern era they don't show it anymore. Who knows? I could not find one with both those 2 items. That is because I was looking for a bunch of grape not the sticker of a puppet I will have to go back.
Everything look delicious
So I took the St-Jean street on all directions very easy here to get by.
Charming little book stores every where.
TASTING TIME AT MARQUISE RUE ST-JEAN
quenelles every where
BUGNES
you taste them
and you want some more
delicious homEMade Bugne from la Marquise
you can sit outside or in the tiny little tea room
9.5 SUR 10
Divine moment even my cappucino was real good
missing one PIECE
a lot of uphill streets go up and down can be easier if you take the FUNICULAIRE
but if you think of tasting a few sausages maybe it's best to have good walking shoes on for your mediaval walk around...
Charles likking a dragon
Lyon is a very religious place however the sacred sites are not well protected and the kids are all over the place hard to take a picture without them but the point is they should not be stepping on old stones and climbing over them it should be limited to restricted area as it is quite important.
Young people are like every where in the world
Antic shopping is fun here
what amazed me when we first got here was the numerous kind of trees you can find in the area unfortunately I am very limited in time and can not do it all but wish I had time to see the nice gardens in the areas and the nice parks.
looks interesting but close
Yes who would have tought that Lyon play a big part of christianism
lawyers
balcony
poor Lyon hidden in this area
books to everyone taste
cute little ice cream cone with a macaron in the middle
bistrot everyone but no one is eating
Oh! the wine cellar is very interesting
house of a very famous photograph from Lyon he lives upstairs
nice area to have a drink
bouchons Lyonnais so original you need to step in to look at the decor or sat down for a meal
Qu'on m'apporte à boire !
Bring me something to drink !
Et apportez moi cette fameuse soupe aux truffles comme Bocuse
And bring me this famous truffle soup Bocuse style !
Allez j'ai le gout de casser la croute.
Come on I can wait to brake the crust ...French expression
I would have bought all those table cloth
Lets go up 1 sausage 2 sausage 325 sausages
and here we are to the top
I wanted to see the basilica but took the wrong stairs
nice view but
school kids do that every day
I even saw an old man who went down to the bakery to get his loaves of bread
good for him
I was exhausted
but we could save alot of money if the kids would walk to school
at least they will get some exercise
these days
mom drive them everywhere
well a lot of them here carried their huge students bas plus a badminton or a tennis racket
they are in shape
sometime i dont know in wich direction you can see the MOnt Blanc 164 km form there
Very nice place check it out on the net
a mix of Rome and old Quebec
spéciality of Lyon
next time I will try it actually im not impress of the look
Lyon the suppose place for food it looks like its made by kids
chocolate master
nice life along the shore
things to do in Lyon
new product
when you come form Quebec and you see flowers you just get nuts!
very nice park unfortunately no time to do it all I think you can in a week end
art museum for rainy days or jogging in the park to look at deers
here its not like Canada where you can not go anywhere with your dogs
the french go it
you can bring your dog on a leash
Dam Canada they built parks and gardens for the bad boys
single women old ladies who need their dog to protect them can not use these facilities no
they rather see them rape or get their purse stolen then having them walk safely with their dogs like the french do.
ok Im starving now too bad for my non experience in eating in a bouchon Lyonnais must of them were close for business they only serve dinner after 7 oclock
too bad for me
I ended up eating at the hotel
I never do that but
I needed to take the bus back and didn't know my way around just yet and we are so far I dont like to deal with this after a nice meal and being so tired.
And at this hotel we stayed its far but they give us a discount because we are airline crew so
since i have no budget
I took advantage of it this time
it turn out to be not bad compare to what you can get in a hotel
9.5 sur 10 potage St Germain missing some salt
The foie gras poelé with basalmic vinagar was ordinaire!
because im allergic to figue they put that instead they could have put onons marmelade but no
7 sur 10
st joseph red wine
St Marcellin de la mère Richard
They forgot to put the cheese out so it was quite a deception to eat
it needed to sit at room temperature before serving it!
4 sur 10 being genrous as I am porbably going back there.
service impeccable: 10 sur 10
souvenir: petits St Marcellin et Les Griottes
God dam hotel temperature system ! Nice room
but if you have to sleep in a boiling room you feel like shit in the morning
and on the 3rd floor you can not sleep with the window open anybody can climb in
0 sur 10
Annecy Paris Montréal but from Lyon itself: a piece of shit!
Bon I am happy to have seen Lyon
the road to get there is pretty fields of colza trees
very nice Unesco city of humanity
city of silk biotech
great place to stop on your way to discover the alps or the wine region
1 or 2 days is plenty
Food area
Famous chef Bocuse
