Difficult photos to take because a tripod is virtually impossible with so many people around. lol.<BR/><BR/>Marja - No, I never saw such a thing in NZ when I lived there. There are some homes in Auckland that light up for Xmas, with spectacular displays, but nothing as impressive as the one here in Lyon. Mind you, the skies are clearer in NZ, so the stars do put on a nice show! :)<BR/><BR/>Colleen - Yes, lighting tends to be big here, even in small villages. Officials take very seriously the whole thing about putting buildings and monuments in their best light! :-)<BR/><BR/>Jen - Hello and welcome.
