But their piercing candor made them memorable young tourists. Mischievous too. Jackie accompanied Lee to a singing lesson in Venice with one of Italy's foremost sopranos, then sat back and urged her sister to sing something from Call Me Madam. Lee now recalls that Jackie played a similar trick on her a decade later. During a 1963 trip to Morocco, while Lee and First Lady Jackie Kennedy were waiting with the King's harem...
