I have so many photos that I have to share them. Most, as is my wont, are of architecture. It just moves me.
Just an ordinary stairway made extraordinary with curving ceilings. Much of Lyon had an Italian feel to me. Lyon, by the way, is more ancient than Paris and was a much more important city during Roman times. Lyon is also second in size after Paris.
Loved the color
A view from below of the Basilica
Loved the color, the stone, the arch of this stairwell
There is something special about lace curtains hanging in a window
I would love to visit Lyon. The only part I know well is the autoroute that goes through, on the way to Paris. That does not count…
Beautiful shots, Linda — love these! I definitely agree that Lyon should be visited more often by us Americans… I hope to make my way back there one day too.
I love all these; I’d love to know where to buy lace curtains. We saw them all over Provence, but didn’t see any for sale.
Next time you’re in Lyon make sure Maurice takes you out to dinner!
Okay STOP posting all these great photos because I’m not getting any #$^*@ work done!
They are all great, but I totally LOVE the 2nd photo!!!
Love the pink arch!
