Montgolfiere.
Ballooning. A word I learned in class today. It is referring to hot air balloons and apparently the Montgolfiere brothers were ancestors of the teacher. Interesting. Also, my teacher speaks English much better than I speak French, but word like hot air balloon escape her. I am the only native English speaker in the class. There is a woman from Turkey, Japan, Germany, and another woman from somewhere in Europe, can't quite place her. But our overlapping language in English, so for some words, I am needed to decipher hand gestures and translate to the closest English meaning. Very important work.
