Afternoon walk through Vieux Lyon

We had a productive morning... we went for a run at Parc de la Tete d'Or... went to the bank to pick up our checks... went to the post office to buy pre-paid envelopes and mail our landlady our proof of renters' insurance... went to the mall to go to the grocery (Carrefour is inside the mall)... went to a cell phone store in the mall and bought a cell phone and pre-paid card... and came home for lunch! After lunch we went to Vieux Lyon and walked around a little bit. Vieux Lyon is the Renaissance area of the city. It is very quaint- quiet, narrow streets, street performers, crepe carts, and little shops.

The movie set museum was having a promotion where you could access the gallery for free... this is for you, Jessi.
