 The Olympic torch now in Paris, ahead of the upcoming Olympics. The Olympic torch has been on a grand tour of France and French territories, which has taken it all the way to Tahiti, Martinique, Guadeloupe, aboard a historic sailboat in Marseille, and now Paris. The flame arrived on Bastille Day over the weekend and is now crisscrossing the city from the Sorbonne to the Louvre and other Paris landmarks. Inez de la Quintera, ABC News, Paris.
