Strike, Strike, Go Away

Another one today. If only I understood it all, but I don't. Now there's a gas shortage because the strikers are holding the petrol hostage in tankers off Marseille. If we make it out of here Friday morning and make it up to Stephan & Laure's wedding in Nantes this wkend, it may just take a miracle.
Meanwhile:
No this is not child labor in strike aftermath. 2 Saturdays ago we had a little soirée with 2 1/2 other couples and a total of 7 kids. Estelle's room got pretty wild.
Eliott hung tough as the lone boy amidst 6 girls.
Estelle enjoys a bath, making Irish soda bread with me one morning....
A visit from my friend Chantal...
Socca with 2 retired teachers from Hazen High school, colleagues of my brother Wes.
Playing PlayMobil with Pierre. Supposedly we'll be getting on a plane Friday morning......if there's not a strike....
