I spent all day working on our visa paperwork! ALL DAY! Except for a lunch break at the park.
There were big strikes today that affected the school cafeterias, so everyone had to come home for the 2-hour lunch break. Many families headed over to the coulee verte for a picnic lunch. I met several new parents.
At one point we were sitting in a big circle and someone remarked, "I think I'm the only French person here!" And even she had lived for a while in Tahiti. We had people from La Reunion, Turkey, Jordan, China, US, Canada, Argentina...basically a typical gathering of parents at our local public school. The overall feel is still French at the school but it's a very multinational French.
