Unfortunately, I didn't have my camera for the rentrée des profs. We had meetings all day and I met some really nice people. So friendly and smiling...I know it's the après summer glow but it just seems like people here are so warm and down to earth. We had some general discussions with a good amount of chatter followed by the unveiling of the "emploi du temps." This was followed by comparisons and possible schedule changes and finally a "pot" which included some fabulous finger foods (like pruneaux wrapped in a kind of bacon...mmmmm) and some juices. No wine, it's "forbidden" in schools as of several years ago. This said, I heard reports of wine at other schools today and saw champagne being poured at a rentrée on the news. In any case, it was a big day.

Mary enjoys the playhouse she just tidied up.

Margaret, Mary, Jed, and Nathan....Margaret and Jed are Fulbrighters in Montélimar.
These are the lovely gifts my new colleagues brought over!
