What's Your Secret?

The hot summer sun in the south of France can really dry out your skin and hair. This stick wielding woman is getting tips on how to soften one's hair and keep your skin looking young and beautiful.


In the largest square in Montpellier, the Comedie, this past Saturday there was a little festival. Lots of traditional culture from the south,...music, food, and dress. There were about seven women dressed like this talking with people. I have no idea how they stayed on their feet under the hot sun, the heat and all the stuff they were wearing...the wigs, the masks, and these long black dresses that scraped the floor as they walked by. I guess they needed their sticks to help 'em to keep from falling over.
