Saturday while strolling through Little Italy, we notice a visible difference. Every site, sound, and smell was Asian. It reminded us of Flushing or Dyker Heights in Queens. It wasn't long before we came upon Columbus Park being enjoyed by the residents. People, mostly men, playing a card game that was not familiar to us. People sitting on park benches and visiting. It is a real neighborhood where families have probably lived for generations.

NEWS FLASH!!!! CHINA INVADES ITALY
That is Little China is taking over Little Italy in Manhattan. So sad, but true. Little Italy, which I prefer, is getting smaller and smaller, while Little China keeps inching forward.
