Christmas in NY

In lots of ways it is almost just another day in NY at Christmas - people out and about everywhere, most shops are open at least for part of the day, tourists being tourists everywhere. What an amazing place. Pretty cold at -3 degrees. Hit Macy's yesterday for shirts, belts, ties. T is still looking for boots but pretty hard to find leather, stitched, made in USA or Italy (everything is made in China).
It is a bit like living in a movie seeing sites from so many films - Bourne, 16 blocks- Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Central Park etc.

Hi all,
Great to catch up on all your comments on blog....S and G just back from his usual Boxing Day visit to Pacific Fair etc....I went to movies with A and his children.
Not cold....but pouring rain and most of south Qld and Nth NSW on flood alert - you know how much I like rain.
