    Lyon time!

    January 21 in France ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C

    Nothing like a 5am start! We got up, ready to head to our bus station around a 15 minute walk away. Too early for this :( anyway we hopped on a bus and around 20 minutes later we arrived at the Marco Polo Airport! Our flight was at 8:30 and we go there at around 6. We walked around a bunch just waiting for our flight to start boarding and then kablam, boarding time! It was such a small plane and the flight took just over an hour. When we arrived in Lyon we caught a train to central Lyon and tried to find a luggage storage place. We found one that was around a 40 minute walk but when we got there it was permanently closed. Thanks google. We were also starving so we had to drag our luggage everywhere we went to go for food - which was annoyingly difficult, especially on a Sunday - we ended up finding a sushi train which was good! Anyway we chilled there for a bit before the air bnb hosts let us leave our luggage. Then we went on a little stroll to the Saint Jean Baptiste Basillica where along the way we saw the most police officers all in riot gear ever. There was a big protest going on and yeah wow it was kinda scary. Anyway we then went to the supermarket to get some frozen pizza and chippies before going home and having a chill dinner at home night. ZzzzRead more
