THE BEACH SHOWER.- The Stone Pine is called "beach umbrella pine" ("Pin Parasol") in French and you can easily understand why when the sun in summer is hot and high in the sky: the tilted trunks and branches are really welcomed for the sunbathers needing a bit of shade. This beach-umbrella-looking tree can also be confused with the local beach showers you can see further back on the picture before the sea...
Assimiler un pin parasol à un... parasol, quoi de plus simple ? Mais c'est plutôt la ressemblance aux douches de plage locales, dont on aperçoit un spécimen au bord de l'eau, qui vient à l'esprit ici.
