How To Connect Navigation To The Ps3

NEW YORK NEW YORK 1 2

July 24, 2010
Here we are, finally in New York, after an interminable journey of long lines and tedious flight hours of sleep and exhaustion, of talk and silence ...


But New York has welcomed us in a hot and muggy afternoon, materializing in the shape of a Pakistani taxi driver who welcomes us and leads us to our hotel, on the 57th, the Salisbury, where she finally found a bit 'of AFA and cool the heat oppressive.



The hotel, despite being a bit 'dated, is extremely clean and our room very comfortable. But the lure of Manhattan is strong and now we go down the road heading towards Times Square. We are struck by the amount of skyscrapers, skyscrapers and when I say I do not mean some buildings like our Pirellone but slender buildings that rise upward in a continual challenge to verticality, making us constantly to walk with their noses to ' upward, surprised and amazed.

Times Square is the heart of Manhattan and is characterized by megacartelloni advertising that light at sunset. I almost find it hard to move on the sidewalks crowded with people of every race and color.



exhausted from jet lag we have dinner in a local restaurant, just to pull late and get used to new rhythms and 10:00 do not almost time to put her head on the pillow that we fall into a deep sleep.

We wake reclaimed from the long night's sleep and experience, with the help of some Italians, the Metro NY that, after all, is quite simple to use, sufficient to take into account the direction in which you are going, UPTOWN or DOWNTOWN. The only question is whether you're taking the train is local, that makes all the stops, or stops EXPRESS and then only in some stations.
By subway we go to Harlem to watch the mass gospel in a Baptist Church on 145th Street. We are warmly welcomed by Laura, a young Argentine with whom I had been in contact via e-mail before you leave. Laura tells us about the program at the appointed hour of the morning and invites us to enter. The ceremony, including sermons and songs, is deeply felt and "experienced" by the faithful and is an experience that is worth living, but from my point of view is not to be missed, perhaps because The gospel choir is not exactly what I expected. Meanwhile, the dark sky over New York and in the afternoon it starts to rain, forcing us to change our program.

The idea was to visit Central Park, but instead we decide to go Fifth, where are also the Rockefeller Center and St. Patrick's Cathedral. When we leave at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the rain stops, but at least the heat is not so stuffy. And 'Sunday and the streets are crowded with both tourists and New Yorkers from taking advantage of the weekend to do some' shopping.








Fifth look down on many shops, but our eyes instead of facing the ground are constantly pointed at the sky and wonder how to build buildings so bold, amazed to see how their vision can change depending on your perspective where you look. The change of zone, but has not been absorbed and had supper at our hotel we aim to plunge into the welcoming arms of Morpheus!
