Café de Turin, 5 Place Garibaldi, Nice

Feb. 9 2009: Savoured a coffee this morning here, visiting the new Nice tram system and the one euro bus to Cap Ferrat. I walked from Port Jean, Cap Ferrat, up across the cap to la Mauresque, which was the villa that W: Sommerset Maughm lived his last days in.
