Sunday Lyons

PS from  yesterday.  Chalon was on the border of occupied France and Vichy France. The hospital was in occupied France. This caused lots of problems.

This morning we went on a guided tour of Lyon. We will return to the church on the hill, the cobbled lanes in the old town and some of the monuments , museums etc in the newer part of town that we saw .  So,details of them later.

In the afternoon we went by public transport to the place we will be staying in from tomorrow just for a look. We mastered ticket buying from a machine that accepted only coins or cards, but not notes; changed trams or metros several times to different lines and worked out not to put our 2 hour ticket in the receptacle for used tickets( just). Then we went to another place to collect our Lyon discount card that I had previously ordered, got some more tourist information and got some money from an ATM.

We have enjoyed the cruise.
