Grève. I have come to hate this word even as I've come to accept it as an everyday part of French life and culture.
So the news that SNCF was having a strike and that certain trains running from Nantes to Paris had been canceled really didn't surprise me but still the possibility of my train's being canceled sat heavy in my stomach as a stone.
The next morning I woke before my alarm and decided to set off to the train station early to see if mine was still on schedule.
It wasn't.
So I went through the process of changing my tickets to the noon departure and set off back again to collect my things and wait.
