New York at Christmas

New York during the holidays is absolutely beautiful. If you haven't seen it, you should definitely visit...I mean, the holidays have barely begun, but the snowflake lights and "gift wrapped" buildings are just stunning as the sun sets on the city illuminating the holiday spirit. I'm so excited about the tree lighting at Rockefeller Center as well. Apparently though, it's a big to-do and soo many people are there you have to camp out to even get near the tree to see it being lit. I may just go a different day, but I MUST see the tree this year. It kind of reminds me of Silver Bells in Lansing. Everyone comes to the capital and watches the parade then they light the tree and people get nuts and candy at the Peanut Shop...ah, the memories. Now all we need is snow, and it will be perfect.

Anyway, just thought I'd share since I spent the day walking around Rockefeller Center admiring the lights and store displays. I'll add photos after I see the tree...can't wait!
