Happy Sunday, and a Happy Channukkah to all who celebrate it (and everyone else, too).
Apologies to all for an oversight on my part this morning. I needed to go shopping this morning, and my only two options (considering what stores I needed) were the mall in Woodbridge NJ and midtown Manhattan. Well, my wife and daughter needed the car today, so Rockerfeller Center it was.
Seriously, I meant to bring my camera along with me to take some pictures for the Canteen folks who can't make it to NYC. I have to say, it was beautiful this morning. There was a thin layer of white coating the ground and everything else, the tree was lit up and the sky was cloudy. And the place was practically deserted (which, in NYC, means fewer than 100 people, but still not a lot). It helped that I accidentally got there 1.5 hours too early. Who knew that they wouldn't open until 10am.
Well, a little time in Barnes & Nobles (got "The Greatest Generation" for my Dad to go along with some WWII-era movies on DVD that I'd already bought) and then spent some time at Nintendo World where, in the absence of my son, I won all four heats of Mario Kart.
A nice walk downtown to Macy's included a peek inside the window displays of Saks 5th avenue and Lord & Taylor's. Then I discovered that everyone in the city was actually inside Macy's trying to use the same escalator.
Really, wish I had taken pictures.
Good Lord’s Day to you, TS....in the absence of your camera, thank you for the visual you “painted”. And it sounds like you survived the escalator.
Oh...congratulations on your wins at Mario Kart.
