Walibi Rhône-Alps: Themepark Disappointment (Old and Elegant Lyon Series 12 )

Walibi Rhône-Alps
Themepark Disappointment
Old and Elegant Lyon Series 12 

It was themepark break for the kids
and it was a long drive from Lyon





…to Les Avenières on a rented sedan.

 

 

....and we passed by some of the most scenic 

 

 

...and bucolic French countryside.

 



It rained had that day and to our disappointment
Walibi Rhône-Alpes was close on a Monday and
we were told that they are only open on weekends. 



Walibi Rhône-Alpes  is a the largest
theme park of the Rhône-Alpes region.



The 35 hectares. park apparently has more than 33 rides
and also operates a waterpark called L'Île aux Pirates.

 

We were disappointed as we traveled
very far only to find the park closed.

 

We returned to Lyon-

 

... and decided to spend the day 
shopping at The Village Outlet.
