Lyon, My Perspective
This has been a very interesting adventure thus far. Our flights were long and exhausting, our hotels and beds are tiny and the wonderful people of Europe do not understand the concept of personal space. On the plus side, everyone seemed very pleasant and helpful. They are very patient with our lack of French skills and try very hard to speak in English. Thank god for Shai, our fluent French speaker and personal translator for the group. Or as the boys began to call her, Mamma Shai!
Our 1st weekend was very productive. Sat we spent walking and discovering our little own around our hotel. Sunday was a fun day. We took a 8 hour Lyon bus tour and got to discover the rich history of the city and experience the beautiful crisp May weather.
Over the next few posts, you will get to learn more about us and our unique personalities. As we go about this adventure, our unique quirkiness will shine through and we will bond over drinks, laughs and long walks. Best part, we started a directory of quotes.
Best part of Lyon is that my childhood bestie lives in town and I got to have a fabulous Lyonnais dinner with her and I get to spend this weekend out in the country with her family.
My learning experience thus far…
I must see The Wolf of Wall Street movie… Andy and Chris heavily quote it!
Aqua Man has a worthless power but still beats Ant Man, as explained to us by Saucy Daddy Pop
Pastries, bread and carbs are the main food group in France…. I am in GLUTEN heaven

So funny, Mama Shai! We have a mom in our group too: Carla! And a dad: Niraj. Or as the Ethiopians call him, Doctor Patel. It's going to his head for sure.
