Photo by myself on 34th Street and 7th Avenue, in Midtown.
Sorry for a cliche view of New York, but I just could not resist myself. Monday night, the decorations were up and the sidewalks were packed with people.
The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is a New York tradition. The parade starts on the Upper West Side and winds south, ending at the Macy's store. All sorts of floats, balloons and bands are involved. A huge insignia was painted on the street and bright lights were being tested for the television cameras.
The sky was cloudy, reflecting a halo of light around the building.
Well folks, Mark and I are headed to Puerto Rico, Thursday. We'll be back very late Monday night. Of course, the blog will continue with a new photo, every day.
I hope everyone who is celebrating Thanksgiving is sharing the day with their families. Don't eat too much!

Thanks everyone, I'm so glad you all liked this. Mark poo-poo'ed the image, lol.
Ian:It is getting a little cold, though not as cold as usual. Before we left, it was in the mid-50s, which is unusual.
My so called fab Kelly: I hope you get to visit NYC soon. During the holidays there is a special buzz in the air, which brings out the kid in you.
Party Bus: I hope you don't really mean that. There are certainly very not-so-great things about New York, which I've posted about. Every place has its good and bad points.
Cliché or not. It's a great pic. Enjoy your trip to the south!
