Lyon
Last Updated: Oct. 26, 2009
Lyon is the second largest city in France and is usually a one or two night stop on some European tours.
The city is, without question, the food capital of France and is considered one of the best cities in the world for food and restaurants.
If you want to try famous French foods like escargot (snails), frogs legs, burgundy beef, duck l’orange, pate, mussels and fries, tripes as well as deserts like crepes, creme brule and a mouth watering selection of tarts and pastries, Lyon is most definitely the place to go.

If you are worried about pick pocketers go to www.pacsafe.com they have slash proof bags and purses as well as camera straps. Great for guys and gals. I used the citysafe 200 and its great.
I'm a Bondi local...it is always packed with people...if you're looking for a more chilled beach hang out, check out Tamarama, Coogee or Bronte beach, all 5-10mins from Bondi.
If you have a high-def video camera, be sure to take it on a hike with you to the bottom of the canyon. HD is the only way to bring out the gorgeous contrast of blue sky and red rock that you'll want to show everyone at home.
