Christmas in NYC

Yup, that's where we ended up yesterday.  First the visit to the 911 Memorial.  We had tickets.


 Very moving, and one has to remember that for a lot of families it's the cemetery for loved ones.

Then, on to the Christmassy NY.
And there were Santa's all over - I guess the two
bunnies lost their way from Easter...
(it was a bar crawl, we asked)
 Santa girl, just for M.  
We also saw a girl dressed as a lampshade, with the legs from
a 'Christmas Story' - too late to take a picture!
 construction on Ground Zero
 Entertainment in the subway.
It was actually very good!
living statue in the subway station
 On the Times Square Glass steps


The view - always amazing and very crowded.
 brother and sister - happy
 The obligatory photo of the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center
 This year's star on the top
NY pretzels and chestnuts on the street
And this Sunday a lovely brunch with the family.
Thank you so much for coming!
It was great!
Loved seeing the kids....

  3. I can not imagine being around that many people! Guess I've lived in the West too long:) Funny Santas with bunnys, intertainment on the subway and is that statue really a woman? Cute one of you two. Glad you got to see Ground Zero. Quite humbling, even in pictures. Stay warm and I'll email you soon.
