Brooklyn Botanic Garden- Discovery GardenFeast of San GennaroNoble Virtues- this is a special exhibit curated from the Met collection. Where is nothing particularly noteworthy, I thought this was just a pretty and calming exhibit to walk through. Gallery 536Gallery 536Gallery 537I don’t normally do two things from the same gallery, but the statue is on loan and I might not get to see it again, and I thought it was really cool. Obviously, I am still in European Sculpture and Decorative ArtsFor some reason, they both need to be in the bathroom with me Aperibar- BolognaseBroadwayFilm Forum1) Aperibar has a small selection, but food is delicious 2) Moulin Rouge is just a fun show- pop music set to a tale as old as time. If you’re in NYC and want to be entertained, go no further. 3) 400 Blows is a classic. But apart from the film making, what I found most interesting is that the story, one of a boy who doesn’t feel loved at home, is still the same story we see today. An unapologetic coming of age story which will stay with you and haunt you to a certain degree.
On another note- my book club had a really wonderful discussion on Wuthering Heights. I’m really glad that I reread this as an adult.
I loved the pics of the San Genaro festival. It brought back memories. In the Bronx, I used to go to the San Silverio festival. Much smaller and I think it is gone now. Such good food. As for the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, I went pretty often to the Bronx Gardens, which is just across the street from the great Bronx Zoo.
I don’t know why, but on your site I am having trouble “liking” comments. When I make a comment, I have to do the whole sign in thing. This has been for the last few days, maybe a week.
Someone else had that problem. The happiness people told me it’s because the person trying to comment wasn’t signed in properly. I will approach them again
Waking up on the Wrong Side of 50 
Have you seen any of the sequels to the 400 blows, which all follow the main character as he ages (all played by the same actor) ?

No. Film forum is playing all of them but I just didn’t have time to see them. At some point I’ll catch the rest

I love all the Chinese art. It’s all so beautiful.
Why do pets always want to be in the bathroom with us? Mina is like that, too.

My favorite picture has to be the reflection in the Discovery Garden. Impressionism without a painter.

I thought it was such a nice place. I’m setting a chapter of the thing I’m working in in the discovery garden so I was absorbing atmosphere
