Barb at Large: Taking it to the Streets

Walk don’t run. Strolling the narrow streets of Milan is the only way to move, a bit of anathema for this New Yorker who is used to moving quickly. (Not to mention a relief for my feet which were perched in high heeled boots.) That said, slowing down allows for gazing in front of the store windows taking in all the details. It was also possible to literally stand in one place and look at several shops at once comparing trends.
