This week passed mostly without incendent. Kate and I managed to keep our adventures to a minimum and try and have a normal week. Miranda did take us to a Gypsy Cirque on Thursday which was......interesting. It was all acrobats and music and dancing. It was amazing what these people can do to thier bodies. I'm just glad it's not me. On friday morning I woke up to Kates voice on the phone...."Sara get outta bed and meet me at the Gare(train Station) in an hour and half, We're going to Marseille" So I roll outta bed get dressed and head to the station, where I manage to talk Kate out of Marseille and into Lyon for the day. Lets just say it was a very interesting day. We get on the train and stare at each other....WHAT are we doing. Two girls who do alot of charades to make ourselves understood are traveling to another city. What an adventure. And it was. So we pull into Lyon without a map or a plan and just start walking. Soon I saw a big pointy thing and said lets walk towards that, that way we always know where the train station is. Well eventually we just walked all the way to it. Which would have been normal right? Except the big pointy thing was 2 miles across town and up a small mountain. Yup. And we walked all the way to it. We were laughing at ourselves the whole way. Getting there and Back wiped out a good 3/4 of the day. Just enough time to eat and find our train back to Grenoble. In Lyon though, we did see 3 churches. One which was hidden in the middle of the city and was amazingly beautiful. Another was very touristy, but had some old ruins outside of it. And the other was at the top of the mountian. It was a cathedral and only 120 years old. It was gorgeous on the inside. On the way up the mountian there was old Roman Ruins just on the side of the mountian. They were very interesting and fun to walk around in. It was hard to imagine hundreds of years ago they were actually whole and people used them. We did make it back to Grenoble though in one peice, and a desire to go on another unplanned adventure. Who knows where we'll end up??
LOVE ALWAYS!!
