le mot "gones"

Went to Lyon today!  One of the teachers I work with offered to take me and a couple fellow assistants for the day.

In French, "les enfants" means "the children."  You can also say "les gamins."  People from Lyon say "les gones."  Weird.  After looking up the correct spelling of "gones" I found this: How to Speak Lyonnais.  Apparently, they use a lot of different words.

Amphitheatre in Lyon

New statue of Pope Jean-Paul II

Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvière

Had a Salade Lyonnaise (lettuce, lardons, poached egg, croutons) for lunch.
A lot of the restaurants have "Bouchon" in the name in Lyon.

My attempt at "playing with perspective."
