My first Menhir in France - there is one not far from my girlfriend's home in Pilat nature park. Yep, a real, honest-to-goodness menhir, the way Obelix used to make them. That is me in the second pic, acting the Obelix.
Mirmande - officially listed as 'one of the most beautiful villages in France' - during my time in France, I plan to visit as many villages on this list as possible.
These are pictures I took while strolling around the 'old quarters' of Lyon, also called Vieux Lyon (Old Lyon). Despite the rundown aspect (or possibly because of it), apartments here cost a fortune, I'm told.
