Wow. I never saw New York like this. I spent time in Brooklyn as a child, which had charms of its own, but not this kind. The Christmastime windows though are really something special.
I hope there will be lots more such events for you in the future.
Robbi,
If you're wishing me more events where I must read more than 300 books, well, I'm not sure! XD
Yes, New York is great fun to visit. While I went to the panel luncheon at Tribeca Grill, Rebecca went to MOMA and had a wonderful time. In addition to the regular collection, the Brothers Quay were a special exhibit. For a drawing-writing-filmmaking nut, that was perfect. I'm always wishing I had time to go to some of the smaller museums, but often there's a show I want to see at the Met.
I did see one hotel already thoroughly and grandly decorated for Christmas, but I imagine that will start soon. I think Advent starts December 2nd this year...
