EVEN COMMERCE IS NOMADIC IN CAMARGUE 



In the town of Les Saintes Maries de la Mer the little stores and shops do not supply- 

 all the needs of the housewives, so traveling venders halt in the shade of the cathedral to 

 display and sell their wares.

 and Paris is not unknown, and when the itinerant vender arrives shopping is the order of 

 the day.
