FIELD NOTE 5.35 - Jour férié.

You would think that I would have realized that today, 8 mai, is a jour férié here in Nantes, but sadly you would be mistaken. It was only after coming to the realization that today was a "jour bleu" for the trams - days when the number of trams running is half its norm - and seeing that practically everything in Commerce was closed that I began to think I had missed some crucial piece of information that everyone else knew.
So all those things I meant to do today like fill out forms, ask about transcripts and buy hot peppers and dental floss had to be forgotten. Until tomorrow, until the stores are open.
