We're just back from our shopping trip to New York (how quick was that?) but I wanted to share these glimpses of Fifth Ave with you as a taster. This photograph doesn't do justice to the tree outside the Rockefeller Centre but it's the only one I took there as I didn't have spare camera batteries with me. NBC were filming a choir on the ice rink singing "Rudolph" - with very large prompt cards out of shot! As one passer-by commented, "Who doesn't know the words to Rudolph the red nosed reindeer?"
Lots of Christmas windows.
Couldn't miss calling into Saks for the first item on my shopping list: Christmas present to self.
Festive wreaths everywhere.
And the odd giant snowflake.
More tomorrow.
