With the spring, air goes warmer and warmer in french Southern Alps and in Saint-Auban. In summer evenings are still quite hot and that's the time when you can enjoy your rest after a long flight and listen to cicadas (these little insects very typical in this dry region, which rub their wings to produce a rather pleasant song).

That's why I chose "Cicadas' e-song" as a title for this small e-mail bulletin, since "Mistral's whispers" (I hope it won't be mistral's roarings...) will be the name of the complete daily bulletin by Janet Hider-Smith - that of course you'll find here also in an electronic version...
