Ah, Lyon!




We arrived yesterday after three days in Paris at the Hotel Voltaire. This was our third stay at this hotel; it's interesting to see the changes each time. (Free wi-fi now, for instance.)




We undoubtedly have the absolute best landlord and landlady ever! Roger met us at the TGV station and transported us to the apartment where Dominique was waiting for us. Lots of helpful advice and information and wine and other necessities in the frig.




Right now we are just getting settled and wandering around the neighborhood. We'll write more later.

  3. Let's see: great food including caramel macaroons: good & cheap wine; art and museums; history-G.G.'s favorite things! I too had the experience of the French being absolutely delightful and helpful. my assessment: if you are pleasant to them and try to speak some French they are both appreciative and gracious.
