Break dance on the streets and even in subway trains is one of the ‘business cards’ of New York... Those guys call themselves Breeze Team. They performed very special break dance in many places of New York always collecting the crowd around. But now they are the guests, guests of 5th avenue with her wonderful store- windows and... simply saying, they are the guests of Water World for performing their dance right here with the Queen of Water World who creates her own magic dance together with Breeze Team.

These magic days (I mean preholidays time) everything is possible in New York... even on 5th Avenue...
When day going closer to twilight and the streets become darker, lighten just by reflections of the store windows, the fairy tale begins... it’s a right time for cup of coffee and even simple horse driver can be invited by the Queen of the Animals (of course together with his horse and carriage) and can be her Prince Charming... just for this evening...

“All world is a theater and everyone is just an actor here”... Many of us heard this sentence and New York at these days really proofs this phrase. Everyone can see so many shows on the streets of the city here and there and the actors are us ourselves. You can choose who you’re going to be actor or observer, so these shows are very interactive, you can choose even the costume (often it will be your own). And yes... I forgot, you can be a “professional” critic... So, don’t stay at home, go outside and participate...

Great Holidays are over but on 5th Avenue are still big sales... here and there can be seen a lot of people with multiple shopping bags or boxes containing gifts for themselves, relatives or friends. New York is still in great mood but not everyone who lives here is the same... I saw this man right across the street from St. Patric's Cathedral. He was sitting on the stair steps. There were some shopping bags near him which make him similar to thousands of buyers warping hither and thither but inside his bags were not gifts but all his belongings, this big sale was not for him...
Nobody paid any attention on the “glorious citizen of World Capital”, just silly seagull tried to steal some food... unsuccessfully, there was no food.

Even if we would live in magic country where all the wishes were realized... we would have more other wishes to ask from Santa Claus. I’m sure that everyone has something to ask...
As well as these guys which made their personal wish list, I made my own and hope it will be realized in that Year of the Dragon. I stoped to believe in Santa when I was 5 years old but now I’m saying: Hope on the best and let it be...
Happy New Year to everyone!
