holla back ... blogger in draft

about time for an update ... but where to begin?

The beginning. Right. Well, I suppose it all started in the Holodeck. Doesn't it always?

while i was shooting pics on the way to brooklyn, my driver ... hehe ... missed our exit, so first thing we saw was a pretty much crazy area - as rich in colors as in its spectrum of different cultures - which we later realized to be williamsburg. unfortunately i didnt manage to get there after that, but i tried a couple of times and maybe i will give it another go after i finally get into that brooklyn museum the following days. ... by the way i should have read those wiki-pages more carefully in order to avoid closed doors as happened with the later but lets start from the beginning or shortly after we managed to find my place in bedford which is another neightboorhood of brooklyn city known for its many different ethnic districts. jewsish, black, hispanic, polish and probably many more ...

basically i was there only for the weekend but ended up to really like this place, not especially because of the two danish girls, but also because of all the other guys who stayed there. some of them like me only on a short trip, others had already over a year ... some frome france, canada or from LA together with folks from just around the corner ... all combined it had an charm of its own; too bad i was too busy all the time chillin in central park and so spent only the second evening really there ... warming up with the others and later going to the bembe for some saturday night dancehall action ... nice

having the place of another colleague from monday on i still was thinking about staying at bedford for the rest of my vacation. still finally an own restroom plus much more room for myself seemed to outweigh all concerns (even the danish) ... even if i ended up on the wrong side of the george washington bridge, which is fort lee

now i've been driving back to brooklyn for two days, firstly to miss - as already mentioned - the brooklyn museum's opening hours (not starting before wednesdays) and going instead again to the prospect park. this time i also came around it's zoo, the picnic house and later on south side and the big lake. the last part happened when i was already on my way to the next point of interest which was the sea and coney island with its amusement park, alongside brighton beach and the mostly russian community

the second time was only today after i woke up as preferable as always on holidays when the golden ball hit again at its highest - or maybe shortly after that - just to drive to jamaica bay for breakfast. being a bit chilled my first physical encounter with the sea water took only a couple of minutes. also after reading my book for an hour and finishing chapter 4 of the stranger i realized that i've forgotten my lighter and so had to go back to my car and maybe move on to rockaway bay with its wildlife reservoir. after checking in via signing my visitors passport i took some photographs of local birds (the real bird birds ;) while not being allowed to have a cigarette again

anyhow currently im back "home" and calling it a day... chilling out on the couch and watching voyager. my plans for tomorrow are still pretty drafty, maybe i go back to central park and finish my book before going to philly on thursday, lets see ...

... the wormhole is collapsing ...
