BUBBLE TEA!!! I have to admit, the first thing that pops into my head when i hear Chinatown is bubble tea. I see Chinatown as an almost unreal place where people of all races go to eat, shop, and have a good time. Chinatown is one of the few places where you can find all sorts of people coexisting in what appears to be perfect harmony. Well, perfect harmony behind the thousands of tourists, overcrowded streets, and less than pleasant smells; but then again that is what makes Chinatown so remarkable. My idea of Brighton Beach is totally different. I think of Russian gangsters sitting on a bench on the bordwalk on a cold and snowy winter day preparing to cut someone's hand off for stealing a carrot, while an old russian man in a tiny blue speedo is going for a swim. The few times I went to Brighton, I got yelled at in stores for reasons which are well beyond my understanding. Tomorrow should be a very fun day!!
