Chinatown


El barrio chino : (Chinatown, Liverpool) está situado cerca del centro de la ciudad muy cerca de la catedral, y es el hogar de la comunidad china .El arco es de los más grandes. Se estima que el número de los chinos en Liverpool podría oscilar entre 25.000 y 35.000. Chinatown se ha extendido de manera significativa desde su primer establecimiento, ahora ocupando gran parte . Las calles de Chinatown de Liverpool están decoradas con linternas chinas y todos los letreros de las calles están en bilingüe( inglés y chino). Restaurantes chinos,supermercados, librerías y otros negocios están ahora esparcidos por todo el distrito.

Nosotros, vimos el gran arco yendo a la catedral y nos impresionó muchísimo y nos hicimos varias fotos.


Funny Anecdotes 2




Todos los días, cuando subía al coche, casi siempre me equivocaba, pues los coches de Liverpool tienen el volante en el lado contrario. Abría la puerta y la volvía a cerrar. Pues bien, un día volvía a mi casa y abrí la puerta y me senté, lo más normal. Pero cuando me di cuenta tenía el volante justo en frente. Yo, me quedé paralizado y el señor me dijo : Bueno que...¿Conduces tú? (en inglés) Y yo lo entendí a la primera y me bajé muy avergonzado, al igual que cuando sonó la alarma en la casa.

best moments in Liverpool




En Liverpool, todas las noches, después de cenar, me sentaba junto a Brian, que era el marido de mi familia allí. Me sentaba con él a ver la tele. Normalmente ponía la BBC. Siempre veíamos programas muy interesante y documentales. Aprendí mucho de esta forma. El primer día puso subtítulos a la tele (subtítulos en inglés) y así podía leerlo y entenderlo mejor. Vimos varios documentales sobre animales, supervivencia. De música, coches, risa... Era todo muy tranquilo y te sentías como en casa. Un día, por ejemplo, vimos un documental sobre playas del mundo, y salió Mallorca. Yo le empecé a contar que mi padre es de allí, que tengo una casa allí. Ellos me dijeron que les encantaba Mallorca y habían ido muchas veces. ¡Vaya, que coincidencia! Me lo pasaba muy bien. Con Marie no veía la tele... ¡Porque se pasaba todo el rato con el teléfono! O eso me pareció ver.

Anecdote






ANECDOTE LIVERPOOL. Juan Carlos Pons. Wednesday.

On Wednesday we went to baldeberde. We could get up later. Marie (the mother of my family) told me it. But the next day I didn´t remember and I got up and I walked into the kitchen and... ¡the alarm sounded! I was very surprised. I went upstairs and I saw Marie out of her bed. She turned off the alarm and said: I told you, you can sleep more today. Oh dear. I felt terrible. But it was funny.
