You can go to the South of France through Lille, but all return journeys are through Paris, customs and immigration you see!
Getting the metro is a pain in the ass, as is trying to get a taxi at Gare du Lyon, it took a huge bribe to getme, my bike bag, and a back pack into a taxi.
Also worth noting is that if your train is late into gare du lyon, and you think you will miss your connection(this has happened to me 3 times, a non stop train from Marseille to Paris!) you can get a stamp on your ticket, which i think helps you with eurostar, ie if you miss your train they don't charge you for a new ticket.
