Before leaving New York this evening, we had time to visit the Flushing neighbourhood in Queens. We had no grande finale in mind, but it turned out quite appropriate for a last stop before returning to Europe: the smells, sounds, signs and walks of life summing up our whole trip hitherto - a little bit of everything, with a strong emphasis on Asia.
