Le Quatorze Juillet

After missing out on last year’s celebrations because I overdid it on the swimming front this year we planned to go and see the feu d’artifice.

Because of the ongoing unease the government has banned the sale of fireworks to individuals this year. And also made buying alcohol more difficult.

But just before 1030pm we strolled down our street to see what we could see. Along with the rest of Lyon it would seem.

Il y avait plein de monde
Les feu d’artifices à Fourvière
Cars ended up double-parked to get a good view

After 20 minutes it was over but it was a very impressive display. There were shouts of Vive la France and Allez Lyon. Good fun.
