trains for the boys

Monsieur Souris on the train to Lyon early in the morning

From our train window -- we are passing another passenger train

In Lyon -- this tram is leaving -- not going to our destination
Here comes our tram -- you can see the electric wires overhead that make them run
After a late night, Monsieur Souris did not want to get out of bed.  He knew we were going to have another busy day.
I figured that trains are a favorite of most boys, so here are a few pictures of them.  There are a lot of fascinating and quick transportation options in Lyon.  We took a train to get there, took the Metro (aka subway -- not pictured) around town, took a tram to University Lyon 1, and took a short bus ride while we were in Lyon.  We also did quite a bit of walking, so we were all tired and ready for bed each night.
