My University

Here are a few pictures of my university and the views from close by. The school is specifically the law school campus for University Jean Moulin Lyon III. The school is right on the river Rhone and is acress the riverr from the big central square and shopping district of the town. I live a little ways across town and have about a 15 minute walk to school if I don't talk the subway.
Across the beautiful bridge it the town center "Bellecour" where all the expensive shops are located, including the two town Starbucks which are apparently extremely popular, expensive, and always require a long wait in line.


These weird torch-like structures are across the street from our University and we can't figure out what they signify. There is an old abandoned pool and water slide at their base.

    Maybe there was a special occasion once upon a time and that's why they put the torches in. Like a fair, maybe? I'm glad you put up a new blog. You must share more photos and stories with us all so we know what you are getting up to. Looks like a cool old building for your classes. =)

    Apparently that is the Nautical Center that is probably open when it is warn for swimming. Maybe the torches are simply used as lights...
