A new conveyor belt sushi place. It has a great rating and mostly great reviews.

There were several “only in New York” moments (like the tiny trained cat and dog show off Times Square) but the only one I caught on video was this dude in a suit playing his didgeridoo sitting in a barred park.

I first saw this guy as part of a video/sculpture installation at the Whitney Biennial 2008. I made a point of finding him in Union Square to see the spiel for myself. Some of you will now be able to guess what gift we brought you form NYC.

The Guggenheim is currently exhibiting a collection showing the work of Cai Guo-Qiang, a Chinese contemporary artist. It was a stunning exhibit and in the center of the museum was a new piece about the prevalence of car bombs in our society and as a reaction to 9/11. Breaking the first rule of the museum I slipped my camera out and took these videos.
