I spent the weekend in lovely Lyon (or Lugdunum according to the Romans- I'll try to post an amazing video about that as soon as I can steal it from Katherine) The city is quite beautiful and the evening of my arrival was nice despite the cold. We picked up some churros/crepes and strolled around the town. Witnessed a pretty huge and loud rally (katherine's first protest in france) of people protesting the violence in gaza. Needless to say we kept a low profile when the started talking about bush and americans being accomplices. Lyon is a presqu'ile or a penninsula (direct translation-almost island) due to the main part of town lying between two large rivers. the town is represented by a lion-lyon lion haha. so they have crazy lion statues everywhere. This one was in the tourist center.
In other visa related news, I hopefully have sent in all the required documents to the office and therefore I should receive an appointment date soon and after that my carte de sejour granting me permission to travel outside of france as I please! Horay. Just be praying that all this takes place and that nothing else goes wrong. I don't think I can handle more set backs!!
