And they are on offense, that they have created here is not waiting for his voluntary ghetto - Brighton and America do not go.

It's funny, I have to Brighton quite a different impression, quite idyllic, it is like communism without Soviet power - I do not know why, it reminds me of Odessa, perhaps, because Odessa - a city of paradise in which they live a sort of saucy angels
The beach with light-gray sand, wide wooden platform, also convert to Headset-gray color of the salt and wind, on the platform - the shop, and on the benches - retired in panamkah, reading "New Russian Word" or even some Russian rubbish, playing chess or dominoes ... A little farther neat social homes, where should be shared in the same living retirees. 95%of the population of Brighton Beach, said in Russian. Where else can you see the ravioli, which conjure good fat aunts, all as one like Misha's friends Chernysheva (once he changed his girlfriend, but neighbors continued to greet "Hello, Bella, not realizing that it's not Bella, and Jeanne) with the announcement: "We need lepilschitsa!!!". No, that live there, of course, there can be no question, but every time I arrive in New York, always going there to eat in Russian and enjoy

Well, Manhattan, what a miracle! The thought that once again I'll be in this magical place, reconciles me with the eight-hour flight without a cigarette and frightening procedure, the passport control. This is a place inhabited by benevolent and curious people to people. In the first bakery to hear emphasis, you ask where you come from and if you like New York and heard that from New York you are delighted and immediately starts now prazdenstvo, involving and clients. Hemingway wrote "The holiday, which is always with you" about Paris, but for me Paris - these days, my holiday is New York

Beautifully as described, and want to drop everything and fly to NY. City on me too impressed. When I first saw the embankment from the side, I even froze in delight as a stunner. The city, which resembles Moscow, where, and forget about nostalgia

I have from New York is not a rainbow impression, but like Grand Central (Central Station), like when you look at the city when he returned from the island with the Statue of Liberty, visited with the theater, it is interesting as a tourist all the tourist places, but life is not wishes.
The buildings are too large, simply crushed, sat in a small park, in a cafe, a piece of blue sky over the park, like a breath of fresh air, and again the whole space is surrounded, squashed skyscrapers.
Everything was running, hurry, in Times Square advise you not to open your mouth (like me), because despite the immense accumulation of Police some nice homeless man pushed me with his elbow (waste properly, well, that kept her purse).
So eerie underground, huge, white tile (as, pardon, in a public toilet) and not very many signs, such as frightening.
As for Americans, such as unusual that they do not smile, casually with someone's gaze in the store, smile at, and you (just like we look like an idiot), and turn away, as well as in shops and restaurants, smiling, talk when you come, when the dinner, paid for, bought, you no longer see, without even saying goodbye (although a tip, run the next customer service), so it's even disgusting!
But in the backwoods of the American people are simpler, very gostipriimny and simple, is fundamentally different from New Yorkers.

It is quite another Paris, walked quietly till late (itself) in the city, and in the morning kruasanchiki, coffee .... tale! (Love fraznuzskuyu cuisine, cheese, wine, oysters!)
Of the food in America, like seafood.

Well I do not know. Nothing special. Regular large-freak. Here is what deserves mention is the Rockefeller Center. With its stunning frescoes in the central hall. Golden Fountain ... Night City from a height of observation - 114 floor. Stunner. The city that never sleeps. And not like any other.
House of John Lennon with lanterns in the form of eternal fire, Seaport with marvelous yachts, Fifth and Park Avenue ... And all this stone island of Manhattan. Quite different looks, Brooklyn, Queens and, of course, the Bronx.
While all this is New York. It is different. A wealthy Long Island with comfortable clean beaches, bays, boats and fancy boats, sculptures of cows and deer estates from the windows of three floors.
In this city it is impossible not to fall in love.
Although I really love only his Leningrad.

[Marina56]

Just a few pictures with views of Central Park and the annual Day of Remembrance of John Lennon. As a rule, is going to is a lot of people. No speeches, just people talking and singing.
Very pleasant conversation. I come from different places.

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Marina56, but on the penultimate picture is not Dakota?

[Marina56]

It is Dakota. The house where John and Yoko lived. Taken from the Central Park.
That we have such a tradition. Every first Saturday of the month, we go to the Brooklyn Museum. On this day there is a large subculture.

And installation - Manhattan from different bottles.

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Marina56, and that you photographed?
More show photos NY.
With the Statue of Liberty-class! Beautifully ...

[Tana]

Maybe we "go off" with the theme of "counselors" and discover something like "Cities and countries", an interesting theme happens.

[Кирилл Сызранский]

Tana, exactly, exactly. But where to start?
No, do not work ... do not find where to transfer, all intertwined, the lamentable state of museums, from there the comparison, etc.
Let it remain.
Counselors will buy, probably as the owner will announce a price ...
