<p>The visa arrived this morning! D got her baccalaureat last week with super grades, so all's set and Smith, here we come!!!
Thanks again to all the sweet people who answered my posts and helped me relieve a bit of my D's anxiety.</p>
<p>Les bons temps roulez!</p>
<p>Btw, LiT, while we were vacationing in the Czech Republic, twice we met older French couples who found themselves attached to an English language tour--one of a castle, another of a library/???--and for all that our French is not so good (well, D's French is decent), between TheMom, D, and me we managed to convey about 80 percent of the essential points that they hadn't understood from the tour guide. The rest, I'm afraid, was lost in translation.</p>
<p>I hope I can find the card of one of the gentlemen...he's involved in PEN, the writers organization, and was great fun to speak with.</p>
