Melun Olympics

Saturday the Melun ward had an Olympic gathering of sorts. We played all kinds of team games including the giant tug-o-war. Everyone played hard and "pulled together" for a fun afternoon. Attending these church functions is especially great for the kids because they have no other option...they have lots of opportunities to practice their French. I can definitely see what a difference a year makes in this regard. Everyone has a good understanding and can carry on a conversation. That's a "gold medal" performance as far as I'm concerned.
