A pretty laid back couple of days. Ventured into old Lyon yesterday and got caught in yet another downpour that lasted the rest of the day. We managed to visit St Jean’s Cathedral though which wasn’t too bad.

Today was the complete opposite it was a stunning day. There seems to be a pattern here that on our last day in a city the weather is amazing! We hiked up a whole heap of stairs to Our Lady Fourvière Basilica. The stairs were definitely worth it when we got to the top….

The Basilica was stunning. The best interior of a church we have seen yet. So much detail!

The outside wasn’t too bad either…

On the way back to the hotel we walked through more of the old Lyon.

We then jumped on a train to Avignon which is a choice city surrounded by a wall. Staying here tonight then moving on to Perpignan tomorrow.
