San, thank you!  Those are beautiful.  NY is the most exciting city in the whole world and they do know how to do Christmas!  One question--did you see the windows at Macy's?  Are they as stupendous as the show on H & G showed them?

My honeymoon (eons ago) was in NYC, between 2 blizzards - it was awesome. All traffic had been stopped except for emergency & necessary vehicles. People were walking in the streets, building amazing snowmen in intersections and other unheard of places. Of course it was far quieter than the city usually is. The decorations were beautiful. Aside from the whole honeymoon thing, it was really an enchanted place.

Thanks so much, San!

My favorite time of the year in the city -- but we were unable to take it in first hand this year.

Merry Christmas!

Hey, San....I have not been into the city at Christmas for years, when I took the kids in and saw many of the same sights.  I love your photos.  What a wonderful gesture to share.  

Sharing the home pc...just seeing this...so I'm echoing (sp?) everyone else!!!

Wow, San!  I found out my daughter won't be able to come home for Christmas and was thinking about going up to visit them, but hate to drive.   NOW, I just HAVE to go and make it to the city!  Your pics. are beautiful.  I even considered Times Square on New years eve.  But not sure I can take the chaos and crowds.  Would love to say I did it at least once in my life!    We'll see....

BTW,  looking at the NBC blg.  I have to tell you, my daughters FIL is retired from NBC, but still does some consulting work.  Last summer he took us on a personal tour and we got to see much more behind the scenes than the 'normal tour'.  Wow it was so interesting, getting to be on the news and SNL sets.  I can't believe how small SNL is!  I have pics of us right on the sets after hours, and even a few famous Dressing rooms. His job is really interesting, he does technical work with lighting and stuff....

Dihannah hopefully you can make it up to visit your daughter.  City is pretty at this time of year.

As far as going to Time Square on New Years Eve that is something I never did and I don't plan on doing Laughing .

San, thanks for posting these gorgeous pix. I was in the city during Christmastime several years ago and it was more beautiful than I ever could have imagined. Saw the Rockettes perform at Radio City Music Hall and heard some carrollers in Grand Central Station that were outstanding...While listening to one of the soloists I actually had tears in my eyes...I will never forget my one and only time in NYC as one of the most enchanting times I've ever had, and hope take my daughter up there for Christmas sometime...Thanks again!
