Tuesday and Wednesday, Azra and I, accompanied by two classmates from Vichy, spent two wonderful days in Lyon, the gastronomical capital of France. The weather was absolutely lovely with blue skies and sunshine. We spent Tuesday sight-seeing and ended the day with a late dinner in an amazing restaurant, Brasserie Georges. The next day, we took advantage of the wonderful weather to do some shopping, people watching, and relaxing. Our next trip will be in Paris.
U utorak i srijedu napravile smo kratku posjetu Lionu. Prvi dan smo provele u razgledanju znamenitosti, a drugi naravno u kupovini, setnji i degustiranju hrane. Lion je proglasen glavnim gastronomskim gradom u Francuskoj.Vecerale smo u jednom finom restoranu. Sljedeci dvodnevni izlet planiramo provesti u Parizu.

Wow! Wow! Wow! <- that was me looking at the photos. Amazing! So glad you got to see all this. Lyon is very pretty.
Oh, and make sure to send me some postcards from all the neat places you go to. You know I like to collect them. They really brighten up my cube. :)
Love you! xoxo
I saw the wheel and was like "please tell me you have pictures from it!!" and then you did. and I was happy. The sunglasses are pretty sweet also haha
It appears the two classmates were "B's".? Are you having time to go to school? haha
Just looked through the pics again and saw that the walls on that building are painted! Wow that's pretty sweet. And the little prince is painted somewhere on the building? Definitely cool

To answer your first question, Denny, those B's are in fact BG's (body guards). Secondly, it might comfort you to know that we have done nothing since coming back from Paris except homework ;)
Hoping you and Mel are doing well!
