He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.

Christmas Champs-Elysees
Champs-Elysees is impressive year round, with its very, very, very expensive stores (think 5th Ave.), but during the Christmas season, the streets are decorated with lights and it almost seems welcoming. These pictures really do not do it any justice; trust me, it feels and looks like a modern setting of "It's a Wonderful Life" when you surface from the metro.
