Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade-NYC
Front line at the parade. We got there at 6:30 am and braved the cold 30 degree temps. It was not so bad once the sun came out but it was brutal standing on the cold cement sidewalk that seemed to penetrate the soles of my fleece lined boots & numb my feet. Though I dreaded going to the parade (friends from Hawai'i who had never been to the east coast & wanted to experience NY & everything it had to offer) I am so glad we did it. The crowd was great & the girls in front of us gave us their seats since they were sitting at the curb on blankets, police were doling out treats, clowns showered us with confetti & the balloons seemed enormous. (they were flying low due to high winds so that helped give us a rare opportunity to see them close up) Times spent with friends made for a memorable event.
Have a great holiday everyone and take time to really enjoy it with your friends & family.
