NYC November (in pictures)

Since I've been a delinquent blogger, once again, I'm going to do a quick November wrap-up...mostly in pictures.

On the 13th we went to see Madonna at Madison Square Garden:

She sang some older songs...

Express Yourself

Vogue
 
More Vogue


She flailed around after asking (demanding) that money be thrown on the stage to be sent to Sandy victims...


She was joined by surprise guest, Psy (singer of "Gangnam Style")...



The day before Thanksgiving we went to see the Macy's Day Parade Balloon Inflation:


Papa Smurf


Creepy Ronald McDonald


Sonic the Hedgehog

Pillsbury Dough Boy

Elf (in quite an awkward position)

Buzz Lightyear


Had a mini-Thanksgiving dinner:


Went to the Sunday Night Football: Giants vs. Packers game (the Packers got trounced...obviously):







Had a weekend visit from my mother, and spent it experiencing a few NYC Xmas traditions:

Holiday Department Store Windows:

Macys

Lord & Taylor

Saks Fifth Avenue

Bvlgari (not a department store, but still cool)

Bergdorf Goodman

Bloomingdales


Tree in Rockefeller Center

The Dakota (where John Lennon lived and was shot)

Christmas tree in the NY Public Library

More posts to come soon over my random business trips and our December activities.
