Merci: Chambers at the French Consulate in Atlanta

It is always a good day when dad is home AND the boys get to park in a parking garage, see skyscrapers and cranes, ride an elevator in a fancy mirrored building, go round and round in a revolving door, play outside in spring sunshine in short sleeved shirts, ride escalators, see pizza cooking in a wood-fire oven and then eat it and ride more elevators.

Eric was just glad that the man behind the glass window at the French consulate accepted all of our paperwork for our application for visas for our entire family for French Polynesia. Important acting man behind glass with a microphone sure didn't act happy about reviewing our many documents, but he gave us that curt nod and everything should be shuffling from one desk to another to French Polynesia/Tahiti and back again and one day soon in six weeks or so, we'll have those very special stamps we need. Alles gestempelt!
