4 languages - 20 minutes
At the park the other night, while waiting for Hannah to show up w/ a friend, we met a Moroccan family who works in France. Trav introduced himself and started speaking Moroccan Arabic with them. They were, as Moroccans always are, THRILLED to talk w/ someone who speaks darija, their local dialect. I chimed in a bit, but my Arabic needs some serious work. So the wife and I had a lovely conversation in French. Then they found out that Rock speaks Spanish, and they both began a conversation w/ him in Spanish. Trav and I were joking in English about how crazy it was to have 4 languages going on in one conversation. Quite awesome, we decided.
