Jeannine, Dede and Pat - Promenade des Anglais Left Milano very early. Drove to Genova and along the Italian Riviera to Nice by way of the Riviera - beautiful beaches. There is a lovely tree lined walk along the sea in Nice called the Promenade des Anglais. We went to American Express and picked up our money and mail from home. Found the Auberge de la Jeaunesse on top of the mountain. It had a lovely view but no heat or hot water. Talked to some boys who informed us that in Tangiers we could have a room in the hostel with or without marijuana.
