Yesterday we walked the length of rue Faubourg Saint Honoré, one of the most beautiful and luxurious streets in Paris (and there are lots!).  The sidewalks are lined with Prada, Chanel, Hermes, Cartier and all the other shops that tauntingly call your name, but will easily destroy your credit rating.  The walk and window shopping took us all afternoon, and at first it was magical.  About halfway through, we both had seen so many things we wanted and had seen so many people walking by with big bags, full of their new purchases, that we started to get jealous.  By the end of the road, we had a whole new perspective.  The intensity of the opulence was both exciting and overwhelming, but towards the end we were happy to find some less traveled streets.
