Beautiful Lyon

i really wish i could post some photos of Lyon, but i still can't get my computer to connect, so i'm stuck using our friends' computer for now.

Lyon has been a great place to stop in, in between our time in Barcelona and Paris. the pace is slower; it's a smaller city; and it's got a terrific free zoo and park. the girls and i have been going there every day. :) today, they even got to ride an antique carousel (although i have a feeling every carousel we ride in France will be an antique).

we are staying with some friends who are from Lyon. they have been cooking us some fantastic food. and last night, we visited with a korean family living here - i had met the wife 3 years ago when Phil was interviewing for a job here - and the girls had a great time playing with their son who is just a year older than Skye.

Barcelona was all about zipping around, trying to catch some sights, but Lyon has had none of that stress. here, we are enjoying good friends and good food (and good wine of course) and lovely weather. à bientot!
