Yesterday would have definitely been a great day to visit the Louvre. If we had, we could have witnessed a dozen sheep storming the Louvre. More accurately, they were being pushed and dragged by group of angry French farmers protesting proposed reforms to the EU's Common Agricultural Policy. I love how they brought a sheep dog along to make sure everyone was appropriately herded. I really should add a category for crazy French protests to this blog.

You definitely should add that category! I remember in my short time in Italy, the various work groups would let you know when they would be staging a strike, so it wouldn't impede too horribly on your day. Or, they would only strike for an hour or two, like the time I got stuck in Pisa.
