I can already feel the taste of the crepes.. wanna join?

because, je fais le pont, moi!

faire le pont could be translated literally as "to make the bridge"
In French it has 2 meanings (feel free to grab your pen if you wanna take notes, huh ;-) :

1. To get a long weekend (we have the thursday off, we just extend the "off" part)
2. To perform a bridge, as in gymnastics!

Have a great week, etc etc and see you on Monday for a most important event! :P
