So last night I was fortunate enough to get off of work in time to go to see the tree lighting in Rockefeller Plaza. Unfortunately, getting off of work in time doesn't mean getting off early enough to beat the crowds. I went with some friends and things were looking great until we came to a stand still about 200 feet from being in view of everything. We sat there for a good 10 minutes debating whether we should stay or not. People were so impatient, we even had a woman next to us screaming at someone trying to push by her. Poor thing, I wanted to sing a nice hymn in her ear to bring the Christmas spirit back. Anyway, we decided to leave and pushed our way back out. We went to Bryant Park, where the tree was lit a few days ago, and walked through the holiday shops. To make the night more personal, we closed our eyes and then opened them to get the effect of a tree lighting.
The pictures:
On 5th Avenue...I thought the snowflakes were fun...they even danced with the music.
