Information overload!

I am typing this at IZY Informatique, in Lyon, and this French keyboard threatens to overcome me. This bagatelle is running me 5 euro per hour, too, so I better keep this short.

Walking around Lyon, I am very nearly overcome by all the sights and sounds here since I started out at 9 am this morning. I started by climbing the heights of the old part of town, and then -- of course -- coming back down and then wandering about the city.

Prices are fairly stiff around here. Besides the high Internet access cost, a Pelforth beer (330 cl, or just short of 12 oz) ran 3.2 euro, or about US$4.50.

This French keyboard is really hard to use, so I'll cut this short.

Cheers...
