A short trip to Lyon, the second largest metropolitan area in France. . .

The stairs we climbed to get to our flat in Lyon.

The flat had a nice kitchen and room enough for 10 to sleep (if one was a baby).

The living room

The nighttime view out the west windows.

The closeup daytime view of the Basilica Notre-Dame de Fourviere which we could see from out flat window.

One of the mosaic murals inside the basilica.

Inside the basilica

The panoramic view of Lyon from the basilica.

On the Pont Bonaparte Bridge crossing the Saone River in Lyon.

Sitting in front of the statue of Louis XIV in the Bellecour Plaza.

Outside the Museum of Miniatures in Cinema

A view of the "Eiffel" tower in Lyon--a replica that is a communications tower next to the basilica.  It looks better at night from far away.

One last view of the inside of the basilica.
We spent one day sight-seeing in Lyon and then M & M's family went to an Imagine Dragons concert that night.
