• McDonalds

  we're leaving tomorrow morning with several more bags than we came with

  It has been a crazy, but very full and blessed ten days!!

  I'm connected through the free wifi at the McDonald's that was walking distance from our old house

  I've taken over 3,000 pictures so far, walked through Lyon several times, especially enjoying the medieval section and the Roman Amphitheater, bought several books, and was given 2 full boxes of books (mostly relating to philosophy and religion) from my uncle, eaten many amazing meals, many of which were enjoyed with extended family over several hours, and thoroughly enjoyed all the beauty around me!!

  I forgot how fast they drive here, and how narrow the roads are!! (now I realize why I have tended to drive faster than most Americans..)

  a few pics:

  A bridge over Le Rhone

  

  We are standing on some remains of the Roman Amphitheater, with a long exposure (13 seconds). We had to stay really still
