Our 1987 Citroen.

The car is still sick. Our mechanic is desperately trying to find a 1987 Citroen automatic transmission that can make it through the dozens and dozens of roadblocks. Meanwhile, the school has seven teachers absent on this, the last day before the holiday. The French teachers are still in Nazareth with their sick baby, one teacher is on pilgrimage to Mecca, one is sick, and three have left for a conference in Turkey. Needless to say, there was a need for substitutes today. Marthame taught the 9th grade English and French classes in a creative way - letting them play soccer!
