| Direct Quote from the Dax
tourist guide: "The Saturday markets are much more than a brisk commercial activity, the markets are the meeting place for all Chalosse, this region to the South of the Vast Landes departement, which has been shaken from its habitual morning disposition. To the rhythm of the Gascon dialect, we discover the great variety of colourful farm produce on display here. The covered Market of Gras, more particular, is a wonderful gastronomic event that can and often does, shed a ray of sunshine into what can be a rather sad and morose World." Are they telling the truth? Come and see for yourself. |
