Busted in the Louvre
This past summer we traipsed all over Paris, following Rick Steves' walking tours. They are terrific tours with such precise directions, it's impossible to get lost. We were delighted to learn lots of interesting facts and see many fascinating sights as we explored places such as Montmartre, the Arc de Triomphe, Père Lachaise cemetery and the Musée d'Orsay — but the biggest surprise was to find a marble bust of my husband at the Louvre!
