We arrived at the JAARS center near Waxhaw, NC late Tuesday evening.  This completed our 1200 mile trip:  Livonia, MI -> Chicago, IL -> Livonia, MI -> Columbus, OH -> Waxhaw, NC.  We successfully completed our application for French long-stay visas at the Consulate, and then arrived on time for our month-long training at the JAARS center.

Here’s a few photos from the trip.

Visiting Millennium Park before our visa appointment:

The backup on I-75.  We ended up waiting on the freeway about 2 hours from 10pm-12am.  Still not sure what happened.
