The story in a few words



Les Salles-sur-Verdon, Provence, France.
An old village sacrified by EDF (1)
to the progress.

Yesterday 200 inhabitants,
today 5.000 tourists in summer.

Sainte-Croix lake :
water, beaches, sailboards, pedal-boats...
Do not forget how it began.
 Graffiti on the walls of the village, jan 02, 1974 : « EDF = thieves, looters »
(1 : EDF = "Electricité de France",
french administration in charge of power supply).

Don't be fooled: EDF has nothing to do with nazism.
This is just an insult. When somebody is expressing himself this way, for sure something is going wrong.

Continuation of the visit.
