On a cold afternoon stroll in the hillside neighborhood of la Croix-Rousse ("the redhead/ginger cross"), named after a reddish stone cross that stood at the old city gates
Old archways of this former silk working town led us into cross-cutting alleyways
A small park was smattered with imposing vines and neon chairs
and community notices, art and ancient history.
A medical office offered hynposis
We popped into this oddball bar for an afternoon panache
Celebrity faces gawked at us from the walls
Johnny Hallyday made a second cameo by the liquor, looking terrifying as ever.
