Up and down...& West to East...

Don't know what building that is? what kind of Austrian are you...?!

That's the Austrian General consulate on the Upper East side..

Is there a funnier place to spend your time in between classes?

I bet there is....

Maybe it's the the 6th precinct of the NYPD just round the corner,

where I spend another hour of delightful entertainment..

guns included!

And all of that while someone's selling my identity to some illegal immigrant..

a few blocks down in Chinatown...

Welcome to your new life Ms. Tlinkl! (No that's not a typo in case you were wondering...)





Yet another picture of a boring NY builing? WRONG...

picture of guy, searching in the trash, in FRONT of a NY building in Soho!

It was also around this neighbourhood that I spotted my first celebrity..

Snape Snape Severus Snape... even if he's mean in the movie - it counts!

Is this bus going to San Francisco? East Village - next stop the wild west...

Yesterday, feeling to oawful to spend yet another day without exploring the world  outside, I crossed the broder between West and East and undertook the journey from Washington to Thomspon Square Park...

walking by a man on a piano, playing the Donauwalzer, a grandmother in a neon jacket, dads playing football with their kids in Thompson Square Park, people lining up in front of bars for another, more commercial kind of football experience and the waterfront (actually that was more of an embarassing slipping, not the first and not the last slippery experience in NY) I was enhancing my image of NY...Adjusting the one in my head to the one you can see on the streets everyday..an ongoing process...

 Yeah that's when you actually realize, that NY's built near water...well nowadays it seems like NY's built IN water too... yes Mr. Sweeper, sweeping the snow in the puddle, is gonna make the puddle grow until all of NY goes under..
