End of a fun day with the Doyles- August 7, 2010

After seeing the Roman ruins, we drove on up the hill to Fourviére, the large cathedral that overlooks Lyon. From that wonderful vantage point, we could see Lyon stretched out before us. In the first picture, you can see a tall brown building in the center. That is the Radisson or the "pencil." It is at the end of our street, Rue Tête D'Or. When we see this landmark, we know that our apartment is in that area.

By that time, we were getting hungry, so we came back to Old Lyon and found the street where the restaurants that feature true Lyonnais food are located. I am sorry to say that the restaurant we chose did not live up to our expectations, but the company was the greatest. We certainly enjoyed sightseeing around Lyon with our friends.
