The diary of 19 in Europe--from Lyon to Paris

September 6, 2008 in Paris, Lyon and rainy

In Lyon, just a 12-day life finally over (use "finally", is felt lonely, Lyon's life, intends to merge, wrote the pickups like Memento). today, accompanied by my daughter to go to Paris and the Paris-stay six days later, on 12, sat Eastern Airlines aircraft flight! suddenly, I was very homesick! specifically, is Miss past familiar environment and in Paris-to stay 6 days would be palpitating. Paris this world metropolis, home-won Oh.

Say, daughter make today went to Paris, was also considered tomorrow is the first Sunday in September, in accordance with established practice, the Louvre is free on this day when my daughter asked tickets. the Louvre tickets to 10 euro, unexpectedly, and so we really went later, only to find that as long as six European! in order to save the people of 12 euro, we in Paris a few days to more overhead and lodging fees. daughter said, Paris stay a few days certainly value, you not only think of the cost!

The train was the afternoon of-large luggage days ago has been arranged. large luggage contents mainly in her daughter's clothes and shoes. There is also a book today to prepare is in Paris to eat something. lunch, put some remaining sauce, rice are packed away, because my daughter is about to return home, she said her this time don't want to cook by yourself. I also saw her bike on a cart basket, (bicycle has processed, this is a compact of hanging basket, due to practical, I later was unanimously praised by sages and jealousy), also it down all tidied away., actually a lot of luggage! luckily had small fan in Paris to meet me, lent me a luggage trailer, this trailer helped us very busy!

Daughter of colleagues speak good to send the results of calling us., he had something must go to the lab, so he doesn't have to send her daughter. behold, we come to a junction, colleagues already there-daughter told me that he is specifically to me, because he said over the phone, also wanted to see if your MOM, and your mother road it don't. colleagues brought a package of specialty chocolate Lyon-I say goodbye to shake hands with him, and let his daughter pass, he later came to China to play he is Arab-French, Chinese people are attracted to our guests who've told me that his girlfriend is also half of Chinese descent!

Lyon Metro estuary as a bench-trailer can't worry about using as, a man came and said to him take the lift to. original alongside ten to step away from a humble little house, the old man with a card swipe, door, elevating lift truck, Elevator stop, is the subway platform! even subway ticket are useless, inadvertently, we became evasion! want to come this elevator is designed for the elderly, people with disabilities use. so, then I infer that the Paris Metro must also have similar lifts-but we do not know. There is also an outsider might not use qualifications.

Tgv train drive fast this sitting is a bit upper compartment, actually gets sick feeling. carriage outside the rain clouds capping, the distant horizon and lightning flashed, worry to Paris? daughter said to Paris without outbound, you can take the subway.

More than two hours after the train to Paris, Lyon, the China station. landlord to phone, because she said you can come to meet us. results waiting for a long time, the landlord didn't come to the phone or we call the past-, she said she could not come, that we may take the subway line number, and where to go and change a few lines, all sit two points arrived. also had to be as usual, the subway up and down are bench, and Hei each young people for their help. remember a young lovers across the US, just to be on the bench, the man gave us the big luggage up to, and may not have prepared for it to be so heavy, also a stagger. and that the woman is very happy, proud of her boyfriend. this scene remains in my memory and heart shores on the goodwill of the people of France, not forgotten!

Daughter rental family hotel in the Paris urban area called "summer red that place down the street" is a four-storey building of old buildings. find-downstairs Mengen Mody, after a while, the door opened, down a fat girl, she is the landlord.

The landlord is a passionate and Northeast China girl, say many. claiming to be in Paris to do business, and trade dress is very good. the rented apartment, rent 800 euros in order to save money, she keeps room to house the living room into the bedroom and living room Studio, 1065, only one bedroom is transformed into a warehouse and a guest bedroom and full House. no more than 30 square meters! good living facilities, if not the bedroom that heap is full of wedding articles, even with all of the plug-daughter through network selected this accommodation, should or can.

We rent 35 Euro a day-a total of 210 euro. advance a lump! this reminds me of Rome Italy people landlord and the Sri Lanka waiter foluolun Isaac, which had also had a lot of family hotel. summary, Chinese enthusiasm, but this enthusiasm to cover up on people's distrust, maybe our compatriots have had lessons. However warm up in the "short pounds short of two" phenomenon, so unpleasant. If Venice the northeast of the hotel, open daily for guests say. Ah, today unfortunately, water heater broke! maybe really happened, but we stayed two nights, the water heater is not repaired!

Today costs one train 21.9 Europe Paris Metro 1.2 Europe one Paris accommodation 35 Euro for two persons

(Can't compete with human communication, but every station on the windowsill to watch children play, still very nice.)
