A picture of success. Of reconnection with family roots. Of successful navigation of an unfamiliar bureaucracy. Of obtaining a privilege of our heritage.
My daughter and son got their passports this week!!
This marks the completion of a journey started in October 2021. I missed my first opportunity in my 20s. I wasn't going to let this one slip by, for me or them!
If you are not a citizen of Spain but a child or grandchild of a Spaniard feel free to ask me about the process. #Spain#españa
This month I got my replacement British Passport. It isn't red, it's blue. It no longer refers to Europe at all. It made me feel really sad. But it will still mean that I don't have to stand in a longer line when I arrive at Gatwick. For everything else I have a so far unused, newish Canadian passport.
