Wintertime in New York City provides a sense of holiday spirit that sometimes can be lost or missing amongst the everyday grind of life. Every year my family and I take a train ride from the shore up to the city. The first trip while in the city is from Penn Station to Radio City Music Hall; if it is a nice day we take a leisurely walk amongst the hustle and bustle of the city but if it’s raining we take a cab. After the annual viewing of the Rockettes and the Christmas Show we are off to see the sights. Walking down the streets we window shop our way through the city, looking in to see what s new at Saks, Dior, Chanel and all of the other stores I will never really shop at. Then it is off to FAO Schwartz to see what kind of crazy new toys they have, also to watch the Big Piano Show because that never really gets old. After some more window shopping we head to get some pizza, what we call real pizza, that would beat the New Jersey pizza any day of the week. Once we’ve had our fill of pizza we walk back down towards Radio City to take pictures in front of the tree. This annual outing in the city provides us with the holiday spirit we need.
