Scenes from Holiday Town

Soldier1.jpg

The city gets all festive this time of year...Shopping, skating, singing, and the pharmacies stay open longer to sell enough xanex for all the panic attacks. We've got this routine down cold.

RockCenter.jpg
Rockefeller Plaza...Home of the rink, the tree, Katie and Matt. The four basic holiday food groups.


Angels.jpg
They don't look it, but they have to be fifty years old each.


nycholiday8.jpg
The view of the new Columbus Circle from the Time Warner Center/Mall. I don't care what the critics say, I like malls. It's the townie in me.


Accident.jpg
Mr. Taxicab meets Mr. Bus in the annual holiday fender bender. The ceremonial shouting match follows.


CitibankTrain.jpg
The biggest train set in the free world is at 53rd and Lex. Go see it if you have the chance.


nycholiday3.jpg
Blomingdales windows...fairy tale theme this year. You know what's really obnoxious, a guy with a camera holding up the line because he wants a shot without glare...sorry everybody.


holiday1.jpg
The NEW skating rink at Bryant Park, with corresponding holiday shopping village. You wanna skate? You gotta shop.


nycholiday4.jpg
Barney's chose to take a light-hearted poke at the royal family for their holiday theme. All in good fun.


nycholiday6.jpg
The street performers were raking in the cash. These guys had a great act. They deserved every penny.


nycholiday1.jpg
And you think you're worried about global warming.


nycholiday5.jpg
The line to get in FAO Schwartz. See previous panic attack joke.


GrandCentralCeiling.jpg
Merry Christmas!
