What a magical place to visit during the Christmas holidays!
I love going to Union Square during the holidays. The Christmas lights, the sights and sounds of people chatting and Christmas music in the background. It's fun to watch the many ice skaters skate around the ring and see the different skating styles. Most of all everyone there was having a good time. There's a little cafe that serves hot cocoa and coffee which is a warm welcome especially when it's cold outside. The thrilling sight is the Christmas tree in Union Square all lighted up and the Menorah. Across the street you see Macy's windows all decked out. You can go to Macy's and go up to the highest floor overlooking the skating rink . You see the entire square with all the activities going on. You can go to St. Francis hotel across the way to see the magnificent gingerbread house that their bakers build every season. It's amazing how creative bakers can be and the architectural design of the gingerbread house they come up with. So much to see and so much to take in. It truly is a glorious time of the year.
