After enjoying pastries, tea, coffee and hot chocolate in Paris, we traveled to our next destination: Lyon, France. Lyon is the third largest city in France and is approximately 2 hours away from Paris by train.
Our hotel was in the center of the city shopping district which gave us the ability to walk most of the city. Our first afternoon in Lyon included a stop for bubble tea (which is the first thing Kelsey looks for in a new city), drinks and appetizers at the Funky Monkey, and a ride on the Funiculaire de Lyon (a mountain cable car) that took us to the Basilica of Notre Dame of Fourvière at the top of a steep hill overlooking Lyon. This was a beautiful spot to see the city and view additional places we wanted to explore.
A late dinner at a local french restaurant included a couple of birthday celebrations for fellow diners. This restaurant uses a hand-cranked music box to celebrate the occasion along with a festive dessert.
