What a day! Chad and I had an amazing experience that took place in our own backyard! That's what we love about NYC. A friend from NYU treated a group of us to a day of Russian culture. His family moved to NYC from Russia when he was nine. Our day started by going to a bath house. There were several different sauna rooms and a cold pool. The idea is that you sweat-it-out in a sauna then jump in the cold pool. Wakes you up! People also had Oak branches that were soaked in water that would then be used to hit people with. Interesting scene.
Then we headed toward Brighten Beach (located in Brooklyn) for dinner. Little did we know that dinner would be a Russian style Las Vegas show with techno-music pumpn' out Russian tunes! Lots of vodka. Excellent food!
Our restaurant was located down a residential street. An man dressed in a military uniform checked out our dress before entering.
Latin-Russian techno! Packed dance floor!
Smoke machines, water walls and a cross-dressing MC turned the little restaurant into a ragen' scene.

I could use a bath house experience like that! The rain is getting to me.
