lyon saint-exupéry

A day of airport.

First in Lisbon, filling over two hours of delay.
Wandering, coffee, newspaper.
Crossword too hard. Sudoku too easy.

Landed in Lyon with my train already half-way to Avignon.
Marooned for three hours.
More wandering, reading, eating.
Contacts too dry. Pizza too greasy.

Now, a lounge chair. Blobs of chocolate floating in a cappuccino from a franchise I forgot I should avoid. Messages to M, already in Avignon, to make sure I won’t be locked out of the dorm. Watching numbers blink on the digital clock.

Airports.

on y danse...among other things

Off in a few minutes to the airport. Lisbon-Lyon, then TGV to Avignon. A week of theatre overdose awaits. Don't have too many details about what we will be seeing and discussing. Will blog if there's internet.
