Autumn in Lyon

The last two weeks have been quite busy!!  I will start by recounting the weekend of Friday, October 26th (right when break started for me).  I had a friend from Siena who visited this weekend, and we did most of the things that you typically do in Lyon.  Unfortunately, much of this weekend was quite rainy and very cold (it was even below 32F, which is freezing)!  However, when the weather is bad, most people don't go outdoors to see the city which is one nice aspect of the rain.

Inside the Roman ruins!

 

The leaves do change color, a little bit

 

 

Every time for the view of the city, it's always cloudy!

 

Fourviere at night from across the river!

 

Hotel de Ville- Lyon's Town Hall!

 

Restaurant we ate for dinner- Lolo Quoi- these are like tomato/carrot based juice type things!  Yummy but a bit strange...

 

More to come tomorrow- the internet is being quite slow and I cannot add photos as quickly as I would like!! Most likely since it is raining out, the internet tends to slow down during the rain for some reason...
