We've all seen the movies. There's no doubt about it. New York City does Christmas very well. Everywhere you look there are decorations, lights, dazzling Christmas trees, busy ice skating rinks and people wishing you "Happy Holidays!" And snow! Yes, we finally experienced our first white Christmas. Okay, so it didn't actually snow on Christmas Day... but there was still an abundance of the white stuff in the streets and particularly in Central Park. Talk about a Winter Wonderland:
We met up with Brandy and took in some sights. Having already visited New York before, we were content mainly to wander and absorb the festive spirit. Here's the spectacular tree overlooking skaters at the Rockefeller Center; Bec and Brandy outside the restaurant where we gorged ourselves splendidly on Christmas Day; and an adorable Christmas market in Bryant Square.
One experience we did have our hearts set on was ice skating in Central Park. Despite the inevitable crowds on a clear afternoon, on Christmas Day itself no less and with carols playing in the background, it could not have been more perfect.
