Hello from Lyon

I arrived safely in Lyon after a very bumpy flight from Toronto to
Frankfurt. Despite being in a sleeping berth, I hardly slept because
of the turbulence. I did have some rather dark thoughts, I must
admit.
The line to get through Frankfurt airport was hot and smelly because
Lufthansa is offering €29 flights - so it was packed. I only had
minutes to spare.
I got into Lyon on a beautiful sunny day. A dance group is putting on
a day-long parade which shut down Place Bellcour. My cabbie dropped
men on the wrong side of the parade. I was cut off from my hotel, so
I had to get another taxi to get me there.
I am completely exhausted but am going for dinner with my client. I
had a stroll around to get me bearings. Now I am trying not to fall
asleep... Which is very hard.
I do have free wifi in my hotel, so I can use that.
