Lyon

Lyon

I am sad that Lyon is the last stop in Europe

The apartment we stayed in has a 2 by 3 metre projector on a screen that drops from the ceiling.

We went on a Funicular up to the Basilique Notre dame de Fourvière. It was a nice church and I lit a candle. We walked from the church to the Roman theatre ruins. My dad and I walked on top of the broken bits of  the walls and they were very high almost as big as four metres. From the top of one of the walls there was a very big drop that would really hurt you if you fell. I was pretending to be Indiana Jones in a scene of Temple of doom where he was on a bit of stone that he could fall do his death. 

There were 2 theatres at the ruins. The biggest one was able to hold 10,000 people and the small one could hold around 3,000.


We came back down the hill on the funicular and walked through the old city. We had lunch and then we looked for the Traboules, which are hidden doorways and walkways.
