Australian Art
There is something delightful about someone’s name matching the way they spend their time. Art Dereka is an Australian artist and a mother of a friend. She is dipping her toe into the online world and has started a web site.
Fête de la Musique
Last Thursday marked the World Music Day, Fête de la Musique in French. Megan took the opportunity to make me take a break from work and explore the streets.
Improving the Mac Help Book
Today I published my first WordPress plugin. The plugin is called “Miln Help Book Search” and it lets Mac applications offer better help.
Black and Red Insect
Surrounded by so many beautiful scenes to photograph and yet I still get a kick out of photographing the tiny.
Evening Stroll
After a long day, I needed to get out of the apartment last night; we opted to walk to the park. It was first time since moving that we have found the time to walk in the evening.
Surprisingly Easy
The transition from our holiday apartment to our new home is complete. The effort of organising and moving between the two apartments within Lyon is done; I am left with a stunned feeling of how smoothly this step went.
Paroisse Catholique du Saint Nom de Jesus
One of our new food markets sits next to Paroisse Catholique du Saint Nom de Jesus. This Roman Catholic church is surrounded by mainly residential buildings in 6ème, Lyon.
Demolition
Yesterday, on the way back from the prefecture, we chanced upon a building being torn down. The corner building was less than a shell of its former self. The sight of painted internal walls exposed to the street was arresting.
Long Days
Getting a day ticket for the public transport in Lyon is a blessing and a curse. Being able to travel freely on buses, trams, and the metro for the day is great. Knowing that the remainder of the day will be spent ferrying heavy items back from Ikea and hardware stores like Leroy Merlin is less appealing.
Recovering
Having recently fallen on concrete, I needed to find a doctor or medical centre in Lyon for follow up treatment. I ended up visiting Fondation Dispensaire Générale de Lyon, a general medical centre, within Lyon 3ème.
