Traveling On

Two last pictures in Le Puy before we headed out.  The blue sign up on the wall of the shell and the stone mosaic of the shell are both markers for the pilgrims that you can find throughout these cities.  



Mother St. John Fontbonne is one of the sisters that hid during the French revolution.  This was her her home parish church where she was eventually arrested.  The revolution ended the day before she was to be executed.  Then, she moved to Lyon, where we are tonight, and restarted a house of Sisters of St. Joseph.  
                   Ok, this one is for Andrew and Noah?  Where's Credo?

Tonight in Lyon we are in a very nice hotel that is modern.  This city is the second biggest in the coutry and actually wealthier than Paris.  However,  this makes it 4 for 4 in hotels with these beds.  This is the first one where the 2 twin beds were pushed together.  We had to do that ourselves in the other three hotels.
So much for a second honeymoon!
