July 14, 2010 Bastille Day Celebration

After a full day at the Tour de France in Chambery, we returned to Lyon where we had dinner and rested for a while. When it started to get dark, we drove to downtown Lyon and walked down to the Rhone River. There are cement steps leading down to the water and we took advantage of these to sit and watch the fireworks display that originated up on the hill in front of Fourviere, the beautiful Catholic cathedral. Bastille Day is France's independence day.
