On July 12 we drove 5
hours back into Central France to attend the Genesis concert.
After we arrived we had a few hours to explore Lyon.
I had
made arrangements online to reserve a room at a reasonably-priced
hotel. When we arrived in Lyon Melissa pretty much freaked out
as the area close to it was a pick-up place for hookers. Since
prostitution is legal in France, it was not that dangerous and we
actually walked through that area without incident on our way to and
from the concert.
Since we had a few hours left before the concert we took a stroll
through the city and after passing the railroad station found
ourselves in the middle of all activities. We had a nice lunch
and enjoyed the architecture and people of Lyon.
In the evening we attended the Genesis concert. It took
place in the soccer stadium and we had excellent seats. The
concert was great and we returned to Cavalaire the next morning for
our final few days in Southern France. |
