Hôtel Magnifique
Cannes, France, A.M.
My Precious Dream-Rabbit,
I'm writing this on the ter-
race outside the hotel .. One
or two yachts are mucking a-
bout. There are a couple of
islands over to the left, and
over to the right some moun-
tains. There aren't many peo-
ple about at this time of day,
as most of the lads play ten-
nis in the morning or go off
to Antibes to bathe.
