A NYC Holiday Adventure

Anyone who know’s Deanna, knows that she loves the holidays! She is a Christmas spirit! In order to make the most of this I planned a holiday adventure around NYC. We started off at the Union Square Market at noon and ended at B Smith’s for dinner leaving after 11pm. We went to holiday markets to shop and shop windows to watch. Some of the windows were amazing. Macy’s took the cake. They included stories, visuals, and even ways to interact with passer-byes.

We saw numerous holiday sites like St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Bryant Park Ice Rink. Funny story, we tried very hard to get a picture in front of the tree. The first guy took 2-3 pictures, only when we got the camera he hadn’t actually taken any. Then the next group took a photo of us so close there was no way to see that we were even in front of the tree. This whole time I’m taking pictures for them in return thinking, WTF. LoL Eventually we found a couple that was able to press a button and line up a tree with a 2.5 inch digital screen. LoL.

And we ate! We had a wonderful lunch with Champaign at the Plaza, some decadent dessert at Serendipity’s and an amazing dinner at B Smiths. The manager of B Smiths was one of RestaurantScheduler’s first customers and he treated us like royalty. We got a plate with 4 desserts at the end. You could have rolled us home, and we planned to roll into a taxi, but we couldn’t find one.

Ya, couldn’t find a taxi in NYC – you would be surprised at how often this is been happening lately. So we drudge soar feet and protruding stomachs to the subway and slowly made our way home. It was fun watching Deanna get so lost (directionally challenged). Sometimes I wonder what she did before me And Radar was truly upset over being left alone all day, but he was happy to see us have so much fun!
