L’enseigne du barbier l’appelle? (Weekend Street/Reflections # 273)

 Lyon, France

They were on the outside looking in. What do you suppose they were looking at? I wondered when he would turn around, spot that barber pole lined up next to his full head of hair, and decide it was time for a haircut. Maybe I was just being catty because I don’t have nearly that much hair myself!😻

Pause-Selfie (Weekend Street/Reflections # 272)

 Lyon, France

It's hard to go very long without seeing someone stop and take a selfie. 

 Personally, I've never liked having my picture taken. The real irony? After more than 30 years online, I've never posted a single photo of myself—yet I've happily shared pictures of thousands of total strangers. 😕

Transport en commun (Weekend Street/Reflections # 267)

 Lyon, France

As I age, I have less patience for crowds and for driving in traffic. Perhaps Tesla's FSD or Cybercabs will be the answer in the future?

Chez les bon vivants (Weekend Street/Reflections # 259)

 

Lyon, France

"Les Bons Vivants est un lieu de vie où le partage et la convivialité sont maîtres mots." 

According to their website, this restaurant is a place where sharing and conviviality are key words. I bet the guy on the phone's keywords were "You were supposed to meet me here at 8 o'clock." 😐

Big White 'Light' (Weekend Street/Reflections # 167)

 Lyon, France

An evening street scene in Vieux Lyon. The woman was chatting with someone in the doorway of a pub called Big White. The sign reflected on the door says Big White chill and chat. It was pretty cold that night, so she was chilling and chatting.😏

I don't think she noticed the big white light on the runner's head.

Travail en équipe (Weekend Street/Reflections # 166)

 Lyon, France

Teamwork. Only three are visible but it took four men to carry this heavy wooden table up the wet stairs. Thankfully they didn't slip, or drop the table. I stayed off to the side just in case.

 Happy Easter!

French Empanadas (Weekend Street/Reflections # 163)

 

Lyon, France

It's not the best lighting or the sharpest picture, but look at the yellow sign that says Toké. It has a bearded man wearing glasses sitting on what looks like a giant empanada. Do you think he looks like the man standing at the counter? 😉

They have several types of empanadas, I had the Jambon Fromage and the Boeuf Argentin. I hope to try the Savoyard next time.

405 bottles of beer on the wall? (Weekend Street/Reflections # 158)

 

Lyon, France

This is a reflection of a lively rugby bar in Lyon. I didn't go in, but if I had, I probably would have gone upstairs because it seemed quieter and more peaceful. In case you were wondering the black blur in the bottom left corner is my camera reflected.😏
