I went by Eurostar from London to Lyon in November, full of plans to take photos of the journey - until I realised my camera's battery was empty.
So instead, I took out a notebook and got drawing the sights and landmarks the train passed - here they are as one animation.
Things I do
I ask people to draw maps...
· Draw the World
· Draw Europe's nations
· Crowdsourced Continent maps
I make map cards:
· See map cards
And other things I write about:
· Little moments from travel
· London art & museums
· Football with foreign fans
· London shop geography
About this blog
I love geography, maps, tours, flags, etymology, and foreign pop culture.

Love the animation, and the giraffes too. What did you make of Lyon? Were you there for a specific reason or just because? Is it worth a visit?
Hi! Thanks for the lovely comment.
Went to visit some friends who have moved there - it's nice for a weekend away. Lovely old part (but not medieval, if I remember right), and cathedrals. Zoo/park with giraffes and bears great too if the weather's right.
Cool. Thanks for responding. I'll keep it in mind as a weekend away kind of place (I've heard it good for food as well).
