Road Trip, Day 3: The Lyon Saga

So, it's Day 3 of the great month-long road trip 🚗with my mom, aka the Passenger Princess👑. You know, because she claims she’s "navigating," but mostly she's just sitting there, scrolling through Facebook like it's a full-time job. Meanwhile, I’m behind the wheel battling both the road and an overly confident GPS that seems determined to lead us straight into the middle of fu*beep*c*beepking nowhere.🫣

Destination: Lyon. Sounds simple, right? WRONG!🙄. GPS had other plans. It guided us to a random street 40 minutes away from our hotel, as if it wanted us to explore the scenic outskirts of Lyon on foot, carrying all our bags like we’re in some kind of minimalist backpacking documentary. Spoiler alert📢: we weren’t. So, we shove everything back into the car and attempt Round 2.

Of course we take another wrong turn. Mom’s still sitting there, now offering  insights like, Mahatma Gandhi himself “Well, that didn’t look like the right way.” Thanks, Captain Obvious.

Third time’s the charm, right?🙏 And by some miracle or maybe just pure exhaustion, we FINALLY find a parking spot RIGHT outside the hotel. I could almost hear the angels singing, but no. Instead, my anxiety skyrockets because, plot twist, it’s parallel parking *in front of French people*. French people who are probably judging my every move with their refined baguette-holding🥖 hands. Just the thought of it had me sweating, but somehow, *thanks to the universe*, I didn’t have to do the full pocket park tango.

And that, my friends, is how we survived Day 3 in Lyon without a parking ticket, a meltdown, or becoming permanent residents of the wrong side of town. Stay tuned for more uturns.
