There are so many festivals in Lyon, it's unbelievable! first of all, there's a 'everyone outside' festival where there's loads of free stuff going on outside (obviously!), which is going on at the moment, and a contemporary art biennale from the 16th, a 'days of heritage' festival on the 19th and 20th, there's a new generation cinema festival in october aswell as a new cinema festival, students of the world night on 29th october, science festival in november, beaujolais nouveau (obviously!), which is in november as well as a short film festival, light festival in december, and then there's even more stuff in 2010, including an english and irish film festival in January!
I had a great night last night, It was Cordula's friend's birthday, so we went and sat on steps on the bank of the rhone with a few bottles of wine and paper cups. The only thing was, they were all German apart from me and a french girl that Cordula's friend lives with.
I met a french girl in the kitchen yesterday who lives on my corridoor who noticed me move in. She goes to a private school, and already has homework after starting yesterday, but she's free on Friday afternoon so we're going to go for a wander round town. She doesn't know anyone either, she lives in a small village which is a 45 minute drive from here, so she doesn't know the town very well either.
There's a wierd mini eiffel tower on top of the hill next to the citadel, and I asked the french girl last night what it was. It's a radio tower. I would put a picture up, but it doesn't seem to want to load. Oh well.
