My First French Protest March


I got to see my first French protest march yesterday. This one wasn't over the new labor law but about some plan to build a new freight only railroad across Lyon. Evidently everyone doesn't think it is such a hot idea. This one marched right down the Rue Servient in front of the hotel but there was nothing but chanting, whistle and horn blowing. There was a significant police escort however.
