Friday the police called to inquire how we were and to tell us something which I did not fully understand since it was in French. I thought he said we didn't need the medical certificate, at least I hoped so. A short time later as we were leaving the hotel two policemen came into the lobby to give us a paper telling us when the man who attacked us would be arraigned and that we could be present. Since it is to be on June 6 when we will be in the US we will not be likely to attend.They confirmed that we would not need a medical certificate.
We took a walk up rue Victor Hugo, bought a bottle of wine for the two good Samaritans who had helped us Wednesday evening and brought it to their shop. They were very kind and gracious again.
Next we went to lunch at the same place where we ate late Wednesdy and then returned to the hotel to rest. Harley is still feeling the effects of the attack and has a good bit of pain in his shoulder.
After resting and reading, we had a light supper and called it a day.
Saturday I had hoped to visit Les Halles Paul Bocuse. It Harley was not yet up to it so we spent the day eating and resting. Since it was still rainy and cold that may have been for the best.
Sunday we started to walk to old Lyon when we discovered a farmer's market at Place Carnot. I can't resist these and so we inspected most of the stalls, bought some beignets de morue which we gobbled down, then some clementines and a pear which we ate sitting on a park bench and then crossed the street for coffee at a brasserie. Finally we made our way to the old part of Lyon which originated in the middle ages. It is a fascinating area and would have been fun to explore more thoroughly but Harley was not yet up to that. It had stopped raining but was quite chilly.
We had quite a long walk anyway and returned for an early supper and final packing for our departure for Paris on Monday.
