POSTCARD FROM CHINA...

chinatown,san francisco
faramarzsoleimani.comSAN FRANCISCO CHINATOWN IN THE LARGEST AND OLDEST CHINATOWN IN NORTH AMERIA,BESTED NEW YORK CHINA TOWN AND TORONTO CHINATOWN.
CHINA TOWN WAS LIKE GRAND BAZAR OF SHAM IN SYRIA.BUT CHINEESE FLAG WAS WAVING ON TOP OF THE BUILDINGS.
THERE WERE EVERYTHING YOU WANTED TO BUY,OR EVEN IF YOU DIDN'T WANT.AND IT WAS WITH REASONABLE PRICE AND CHEAP.AND IN SOME SHOPS WORKER WERE BUSY KNITTING OR SWING .THE BIG PROBLEM WAS LACK OF TOILETS.AND RESTAURANT STAFFS WERE INSISTING TO SELL SOMETHING IN ORDER TO USE THE TOILETS
FINALLY WE FOUND A PARK A LA CHINESE TO EMPTY OURSELVES.
A SENIOR CITIZEN CHINESE ORCHESTRA WAS VERY BUSY PLAYING AND A MAN AND WOMEN HAD A DIALOGUE BEHIND MICS.THERE WAS AV OR CHINESE DOUBLE STRING STANDING VIOLIN,LIKE PERSIAN KAMANCHEH,SOMETHING LIKE DOLCIMER OR OUR SANTUR,AND PERCUSSION AND OTHER TRADITIONAL INSTRUMENTS PLAYING AND ACCOMPANYING THE SINGERS.BUT THE WIND WAS NOT COOPERATIVE AND WAS TRYING TO STILL THE HANDWRITTEN LYRICS.
CHINES WERE PLAYING CARDS ALL OVER PLACESAND THEIR MONEY WAS BLACK STONES.THERE WERE MEN AND WOMEN,AND THEIR KIDS IN PLAYGROUND.TRISTAN AND SKYLAR WERE  TIRED AND SAM WENT TO DRIVE THE CAR AND TOOK US TO GOLDEN GATE...
