Wow Christmas at Rockefeller Center

I have been to NYC and love it, but never at Christmas time.  Even on TV it's just phenomenally beautiful!  And the stage with those beautiful white trees decked out with white lights, now I want a white tree for next year,  Loved it.  Oh and the singing and the Rockettes were good too!

Every year when we were small, my mother every xmas holiday would drag us to Rockefeller Center to see the Rockettes which always was the finale after watching some Doris Day-Rock Hudson movie.

New York is beautiful at the holidays, it is truly special.

Re: Wow Christmas at Rockefeller Center

I was just in NYC this past Sunday and the tree wasn't lit yet but everything was breathtaking. Saks and its windows were magical.  To me, there is nothing like the holidays in NYC.  I love St. Patrick's ,  Bryant Park and the Plaza Hotel.

Re: Wow Christmas at Rockefeller Center

San Francisco use to be this way, but all the stores of that time are gone on Union Square and a lot of discount stores in now.  It's not the same.  I do have a picture of the beautiful tree in union square from many years ago.  I work in an office in Maiden Lane, the small alley in back of Market and Kerney sts and Podesta B. uses to have the beautiful Christmas trees decoraated and the store with all the beautiful flowers all year round, but especially at Christmas.
