We had a full day in Lyon so after doing laundry and grabbing lunch we decided to go climb a nearby hill with a huge church on it.  It was really hot and humid which was extremely enjoyable…we crossed two rivers and got into the old town then started up a windy road.  A ways up we came across a huge ancient Roman theater, Lyon was originally started by the Romans.  Not far past that we found the huge church overlooking the whole city.  Kinda funny how the tallest building was a giant radisson hotel that stuck out pretty badly.  After that we found a mini eiffel tower that we weren’t allowed to climb.  On the way down we found a huge park to walk through that covered the hillside.  Once we got back down we did the only thing that seemed reasonable at the fine and ate a baguette.

We are in Lyon now vibin hard.  Found super cheap room and the city has a good feel so we decided to stay another day.  Currently deciding if we want a third night here or if we should keep on rolling.  Interesting side note, I came here expecting everyone to be all about kings of Leon since they named their city after the band…However, it appears the spelling mistake has caused the people here to anger and pretend like they have never even heard of them.  Next I’ll find out that Paris has disowned eiffel 65….haha yeah right.
