Two of the places he mentioned I could not find over the summer when I went on a planning trip. One of the two I thought simply didn&#8217;t exist anymore as there was a large gap in the street numbers, with Nietzsche&#8217;s former residence unfortunately being in that gap. The other was even more mysterious as even the street apparently no longer existed. The weekend before we left, I discovered in that a\u00a0letters to a friend, Nietzsche writes &#8220;P.S.\u00a0Pet. rue St. Etienne is now renamed Rue <span class=\"il\">Rossini.<\/span>&#8221; A quick search on Google confirmed that Rue Rossini still exists. Nietzsche never gave a street number; just that he was living in the pension de Gen\u00e8ve. Rue Rossini is about\u00a0ten blocks long. I was excited that we might find another of Nietzsche&#8217;s former residences. My students and I walked about 20 minutes out of our way to get to it, and then walked down it, only to find nothing. Not one of them complained about being sent on a fool&#8217;s errand. I walked back later to see if we missed it. We hadn&#8217;t. Many of the buildings were Art Deco, so I&#8217;m guessing that Nietzsche&#8217;s former living quarters had been destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>We also visited the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nice.fr\/Culture\/Musees-et-expositions\/Villa-Massena\">Villa Mass\u00e9na<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/en.nicetourisme.com\/things-to-do\/1396\">Cours Saleya<\/a>.\u00a0We ended the day (or at least I did) with a group dinner at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.crescere.fr\/restaurants-pizzanice-planacces.htm\">La Pizza Cresci<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The weather was perfect all day.
