Some people from The Twelve Tribes : The Commonwealth of Israel parked up three really nicely restored old 50s buses in Washington Square last night.

I think they are Christans, but are playing 'Irish/ Israeli' folk music in NYC next week. I would suggest that they should be called Oi Vay Maria.

Anyway, I learned this really interesting fact - If you are a hippy traveller, the best place to park up your trailer for free, is the car park at a mega Walmart.

Hippies and ultra-consumer capitalism have a symbiotic relationship after all.
