Eating at Chefs de France with my kids and mom, a table near us had a birthday. The CMs sang a very boisterous round of 'Joyeux anniversaire'. My kids are fluent, so they joined in.
At the table next to us, a little boy asked his mom what they were singing. Her response was "That must be 'Happy Birthday' in ITALIAN."
Cracked us up for the rest of the day!

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Ha! That gave me a laugh. Even if they didn't speak the language, they might have clued in by the land they were in or the name of the restaurant.Teresa Kay wrote:Eating at Chefs de France with my kids and mom, a table near us had a birthday.

I'm not fluent in, and know nothing of, either of those languages and I think I would be able to tell the difference without needing to think of the location.Teresa Kay wrote:Eating at Chefs de France with my kids and mom, a table near us had a birthday.

My point exactly! And if there was a question, maybe thinking "wow, where am I?" could have solved the problem.Lasolimu wrote:I'm not fluent in, and know nothing of, either of those languages and I think I would be able to tell the difference without needing to think of the location.
Thanks all for the warm welcome. I promise to try and not be a SG at any time, either here or at any park!
