Thursday 07/07/2016 – Vieux Lyon


The day was as hot as yesterday.


This didn’t deter us from visiting the old town in Lyon after yet another café breakfast.  We only had two hours but that was plenty of time to visit the old town square and cathedral. 


Danny really enjoyed the old town with its narrow streets and beautiful buildings. 



Inside the cathedral we lit another candle, this time in blue so that we could remember it in the photos when we get back to Rennes.


At Gare de Lyon (Par Dieu) we had to time to buy some dragon snacks for the journey back. 

Danny was excited when he met SuperVictor and had his photo taken with him.  We made sure we got the right part of the train, unlike our journey back from Bordeaux. For the first time we were on a direct train with no changes in Paris and like every other journey the trains were on time, fast and clean. 

 As we travelled back Danny told me how excited he had been with the tournament and he pestered me into taking him to Paris on Sunday for the final even though we didn’t have any tickets.  When we arrived home it was straight to bed for us both. And then planning for the final!!
