Here are some more pictures of the market - green caulifower (I do not know what you call this cross-polinated vegetable.)

Here is Potiron (squash). This is one of my favourite vegetables served in France, usually as a whipped puree with garlic, curry, butter or potatoes:

And of course, the tastiest Oefs frais (fresh eggs) in a bed of straw:

Here is the band "Fanfare Piston," Ecole Centrale de Lyon, playing on the front steps of the Croix Rousse mayor's office:

This is the statue "Song of the Canuts (silk-weavers)" in the little playground beside the mayor's office:

And here is a game David made up on the side wall of the mayor's office - Guthrie, Harper and he tried to throw snowballs into the center of the cirle:

Harper with the new sled we bought for them yesterday:

And I can't resist sending another one of the Brueghel playground - much more crowded today than yesterday.

David and Guthrie about to watch Harper go flying down the hill as I head home to take photographs on the way and make lunch.

And here is wonder papa David, a handsome French man here. I'm so proud of my Obama-appointed, W.H.O.-employed super epidemiologist husband:

This is a leaf that Guthrie found at the mall yesterday on the floor. The mall, Part Dieu, was absolutely mad. We were actually a bit scared going up the stairs with hundreds of others, including lots of young drunk males. None of us have ever been at a mall when it was so crowded before. We even witnessed a fight between a crazy lady and a man and child.
