Август, жарко… Лето есть лето и не стоит ворчать по поводу высоких показателей термометров. Еще пару месяцев и все начнут страдать от ветра и дождя, а потом от снега и холода. Так что, живите сегодняшним днем и получайте от него все, что возможно, но особенно удовольствие и радость. Остальное дело техника, как говорится. Поэтому постарайтесь найти для себя оптимально возможную среду обитания в сложившихся природных условия. Но, я не стану призывать вас отправляеться на природу, на воздух, к воде – это и так очевидно. Не буду говорить о том, что в Нью-Йорке много мест где можно отдохнуть от жары в хорошо кондиционированном помещении: музеи, рестораны, магазины, холлы больших зданий – это все знают. Но, на всякий случай напомню, что во многих музеях сейчас проходят интересные выставки, поэтому не поленитесь выбрать что-то по своему вкусу и провести несколько часов наедине с прекрасным и вечным в прохладных музейных залах. Тем кто не успел: все все еще длится потрясающая выставка костюма “Manus x Machina” At The Met Fifth Avenue. MAY 5, 2016–SEPTEMBER 5, 2016.
В этом месяце, я хочу обратить ваше внимание на уникальные нью-йоркские концерты таких звезд как Пол Макартни, Билл Жжоэл, Барбара Стрейзанд и других.
