A snowed-in theatre

Here are more photos from Nicole's visit...we didn't only go to the miniature museum!

One of our stops was definitely Fourvière...I believe it was the first (and only) time I went up there when there was snow!

posing (lousily)

Nicole posing (she has this gift for that kind of thing)

to show you that it was at Fourvière (almost-candid shot...Nicole just asked me to turn around and took the photo...which is why I was still rubbing my hands together for warmth)

We wanted to go to the Roman theatres as well...but unfortunately it was closed due to the snow. There was a guard there who stopped us from entering (we arrived from the top), but we pleaded a long, long time just to step past the barrier and take a photo from one position.

It was COLD, I assure you!!

At least I can say now that I've seen these two places covered in snow ^_^

Nicole had a guidebook that said that there was a "legendary" (I quote) indoor market in Lyon. I had never heard of it being legendary before...even though I had heard about it (more because of there being a bus stop with its name than anything else, I think :P ) It is Les Halles Paul Bocuse...we went there to check it out, and saw that it was a kind of "high-class" market. No wonder a pitiful student like me didn't know about it :P

I didn't take much photos there...but here are two that show some of the "high-class products".



There were also some small glasses of entrées and desserts that looked absolutely yummy...costing 2€ each. The glasses were like 2 inches high. :|

Oh, and we saw this guy writing some manuscript in an old part of town. I went to get a closer look...


Nah, it's part of the painted wall I wrote about before ;)

I didn't take much photos during Nicole's visit since it was so cold...I didn't feel like taking my hands out of my pockets! Nicole took slightly more photos...she didn't pass me all of them though, mainly only those with me in them, so these are about the best I've got to show you!
