The United States is a pretty different thing. The streets are packed with people and there is life every were. Brooklyn was actually more chaotic than i thought and the neighborhood we chose was maybe not the most luxurious, but we couldn't afford anything else at the moment. I forgot to mention that I travel together with my girl and she was also pretty chocked when we arrived. Our hostel is pretty ok but the breakfast was not very tempting so we went to look for a good cafe down town. We found something called "Red horse Cafe" on 12th street Park Slope. It was really nice with an ongoing art exhibition, so we took an espresso and a toast for breakfast and looked at the paintings surrounding us. The paintings where made by an artist called Lisa Murgo and was truly inspired by the graffiti that covers the streets in Brooklyn. It's really a creative atmosphere here, and there are plenty of things too see.

To night we're going out to see the club life. I've heard about a place called the Sapphire on 249 Eldridge St. and they have a house club called Deep See at Tuesdays. It costs $10 at the door but they have plenty of decent DJ's. I guess we'll go there around 1.00 am to be sure the club is warmed up. Eldridge Street is on Manhattan, so I'm looking forward to go there.
I also asked the people in the cafe if they knew about any restaurants in the area for dinner tonight. They told us to go to the recently opened General Greene witch is a type of "underground" restaurant located at 229 Dekalb Avenue here in Brooklyn. It seems really cosy and a good place to dine our first dinner.

On Thursday we leave New York for Miami. I just booked the tickets and the flight leaves JFK airport at 2.55 PM. It was pretty expensive though. They charged $274 per ticket.
Well I'll get back on that later, we have barely landed here in NY.
Now we are about to walk around the streets to get the vibe of Brooklyn.
