With their trusty guidebook in hand, these two ladies seem to be following Rick's advice to the letter: travel in "shoulder" season, dress unobtrusively (black being an excellent choice), and enjoying life like the locals do, with a leisurely coffee in an outdoor cafe not too far from Steve's favorite street, Rue Cler. I'm kind of amazed that this picture, which I shot through the window of the 82 bus, actually came out so well. Hope you enjoy your stay.

I finally got around to checking out rue Cler last summer. It was somewhat disappointing. I also had a pretty bad meal at a bistro just a block off the rue.
Doesn't the woman holding the book seem "somehow" familiar?
i like rick steves books for cutting out all the crap and going straight to the point. i used his book when i did my obligatory summer after college backpack through europe tour.
Starman: Familiar in what way?
Love Rick!:)He's friendly, knowledgeable and unassuming:)His advice is down-to-earth and useful. His info on pickpockets came in handy in Madrid...
I'm a fan of Rick's guides and lingering at outdoor cafes...
I plan on it next April while visiting Paris for the first time in ten years.
I'm not sure. It just seems like I should know her.
