What a view!!!
New York
,
United States
These are some of the impressive views we had from the top of the rock at Rockefeller Center.
Ëstas son algunas de las impresionantes vistas de las que se puede disfrutar en lo alto de Rockefeller Centre.
Watching the shocking skycrapper you can feel really really small.
Anyway there are other ways to feel yourself big again:
Mirando todos esos espectaculares rascacielos puedes llegar a sentirte muy, muy pequeño. Sin embargo en una ciudad como ésta, algo así tiene fácil solución:

Chinatown
New York
,
United States
Walking along Chinatown in New York you can easily forget where you are and imagine youself in the real China. It was an absolute pleasure to visit the crowded streets and feel the magic and exotism they transmit. Both, day and night trips are pure seduction for your senses.
Paseando por el barrio Chino en Nueva York se puede olvidar facilmente donde estás y sentir que te encuentras en el lejano Oriente. Ha sido un placer caminar por las calles abarrotadas de gente y sentir la magia y exotismo que transmiten. Tanto por la noche como por el dia se respira un halo de seducción para tus sentidos.
Another thing I also really love about this neighbourhood is that even if it is a really commercial place full of shops, an ordinary tourist like me finds really difficult to buy something, especially food. So you can easily feel outside the high consumism there is all around Manhattan.
Otra cosa que me encanta de este barrio es que a pesar de ser muy comercial, lleno de tiendecitas de todo tipo, el típico turista puede encontrar muy dificil comprar algo, especialmente si se trata de comida. Por ello, por un momento uno se siente fuera de la gran urbe consumista que es la isla de Manhattan.
After the walk, we felt really hungry so we decided to enter a very especial restaurant. It was a vegeterian chinese one. The funny thing was that they tried to copy chinese food using no meat. So we ordered an imitation of Chicken with mango (without Chicken).
Después del paseito y haciendo caso a nuestras rugientes tripas fuimos a calmarlas a un restaurante muy especial. Se trataba de un chino vegetariano. Lo curioso del sitio es que en su menú aparecia un sinfin de copias de la típica comida china pero sin carne o mejor tal y como se leia en la carta, con imitación a.... Así ahi nos teneis pidiéndo un plato de falso pollo con mango.
Just going back home we saw the most romantic part of all: a chinnese wedding. It really catched our attention that the guesses were signing on a beautiful picture were the bride and the broom were posing.
Ya volviendo a casa nos encontramos con el evento más romántico: una auténtica boda china. El detalle más bonito era ver como los invitados se situaban en una fila para dejar sellada su firma en un bonito retrato con los novios posando.

Being a New Yorker
New York
,
United States
There are only three basic things you should do to look and live like a New Yorker:
Las tres reglas de oro para parecer un neoyorkino:
1. Walk though the street with a shopping bag and a coffee.
1. Caminar por la calle con bolsas (cuantas más mejor) en una mano y un café en la otra.
2. Go to a public laundry and dont ask questions about how to put the washing machine on. Local people may think that you are crazy.
2. Hacer la colada en una lavanderia pública y ni por asomo preguntarle al dueño que como funciona la lavadora, pueden pensar que estás loco.
3. To think that is absolutely right to use 8 coins instead of 2 to make the machine starts.
3. Ver como algo natural insertar 8 (de 1/4 de dolar) monedas en vez de 2 con el mismo

Our School
New York
,
United States
Schools in Manhattan are exactly the same as in Porzuna where parents come into the classroom wherever they want interrupting and bothering teachers. There is just a tiny difference: here in Manhattan there are three policewomen at the door that ask for identification to everyone trying to
Enter
the school.
The school bus is also really similar.
Lo mismo que en Pozuna que los padres entran en mitad de la clase molestando, aquí en Manhattan tienen tres policias como armarios que piden los dni y apuntan tus datos en una hoja. El autobus lo mismo, parecen gemelos.

Chema playing basketball at the cage
New York
,
United States
I cant believe it!! I read many times about "the cage", the famous street basketball court in New York. It was supposed to be full of hard players but I found a guy who said that no players were there because it was too chilly for them. Hard players?
Increible. Hoy he estado en "the cage" la famosa pista de basket callejero donde se supone que juegan los tipos más duros. Le pregunté a un negro la razón por la cual la pista estaba vacia y me contestó que en esta época empieza a hacer frio y solo juegan en pabellones cubiertos. ¿Tipos duros?
Aquí dejo un video de la experiencia:

the unbelievable parking
New York
,
United States
You can easily know how to go to places in Manhattan. Streets are all parallel and most of them have numbers instead of names. Bearing this in mind we come to the conclusion that New Yorkers are really organized but what I could have never imagined is the way they tidy up their cars in parkings. Do you have any idea of how they will take them away?
Es facil moverse por Manhattan. Las calles son paralelas y muchas tienen numeros en vez de nombres. Con ello llegamos a la conclusión de que nuestros amigos neoyorkinos son muy ordenados pero nunca hubiera imaginado que lo fueran también y de esta manera en los parkings. ¿a alguien se le ocurre como van a sacar los coches de ahí?
Aparcamiento de coches ¿cómo saldrán de ahí?
