Just posted up a few pics from a brolly-bending a rainy day in Brookyn and NYC. I like bad weatherh http://www.urban75.org/blog/umbrellas-fail-to-survive-a-brooklyn-storm/
One of my best memories from NY is just going for a walk while it was chucking it down. Found a great deli and bar during that little wander and don't remember how I got back to the hotel
