Today we woke up and boarded the coach to drive back into France. We left our cute little hotel in Switzerland around 9am and drove into the city of Lyon around 6pm. After dropping our bags off at the hotel, we immediately left to go and see the city. We saw an awesome cathedral and an even more breath-taking basilica. The basilica is at the top of a mountain, and overlooks the entire city of Lyon, so we had some great views in this French city. After our sightseeing, we headed to dinner. Our tour guide gave us a tip: the fewer people in the restaurant, the better the food will be, because then the waiters and chefs are able to focus their attention only on you. We headed down a small street from the main square, and stopped once we found a menu we thought we could understand. Words cannot describe how incredible our food was. THE best meal we’ve ever eaten! We shared an order of escargot, which was actually extremely delicious. Matt ordered frog legs as his entrée, and Audrey ordered chicken in a morel mushroom sauce. If the smells weren’t enough, then after just one bite it tasted like heaven. We also ordered a bottle of fantastic champagne for the table, which was a perfect compliment for the meal. For desert we had chocolate cake. Audrey didn’t want to eat the last bite because she didn’t want it to be all gone! It was delicious. After dinner we headed back to the hotel, as we were waking up at 6am the next day to depart for Barcelona, Spain.
wait... it was better than my lasagna?
