Christmas Time, New York City

No matter how many times I've seen it in my life, the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center never fails to fill me with childlike awe and wonder. With warm chestnuts in hand, I marveled at it all.

Skaters at Rockefeller Center.

Magical angels line the pathway to the tree.

A pop-up book in a window at Rockefeller Center.

The holiday windows at Bergdoff Goodman pay tribute to travel and adventure.

Even the buildings (this one Cartier) are wrapped in bows.

The UNICEF Snowflake.

I dreamt I had an Eloise adventure at The Plaza, but alas, it's back to New Jersey I go, grateful, still, to be part of the excitement of it all.

    I miss seeing the tree, but I doubt I'll be able to make it to the city this year. Glad you were able to visit the holiday bonanza that is Rockefeller Center! haha

    Admittedly, even though I work in New York City, I didn't see the tree last year (or I the year before I believe).

    My three foot tall Charlie Brown-type Christmas tree - just as magical (in my humble opinion!)

    Happy holidays!
