Paris & Lyon

A trip to France (Paris and Lyon, with a day trip to Annecy) with the parents back in 2017, right before I moved from Boston to San Francisco to start a new job.

Paris

We’ve been to Paris a quite few times already, so I didn’t take as many photos this time round.

Strolling in the Paris heat

The only touristy thing we did in Paris was this dinner cruise passing by landmarks at night. We were a little bummed out that it was pouring, but it turned out to add to the lovely atmosphere. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy such a touristy cruise this much but we had a blast!

Walked here at 11pm in pouring rain to flag down a cab and you’re still beautiful to us <3

A lunch at Epicure, a family favorite for classic French fine-dining.

A dinner at Pavillon Ledoyen, accompanied by more rain.

Lyon

Once my dad was done with his conference in Paris, we took the train to Lyon, the 3rd largest city in France. The train ride was just under 2 hours. We stayed here for the remainder of our time in France, with a day trip to Annecy (separate post coming up next!)

Lunch at the food market near the train station

Madam’s happy place!

Our hotel was quite high up

At Paul Bocuse for dinner. This was about 7 months before he passed away.

Lyon’s morning light

Evening stroll after our drive back from Annecy. We didn’t want our time here to end :’(

Goodbye Lyon :’)
