Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree

Modified: · Published: by · This post may contain affiliate links · 15 Comments
On New Year's Day our family did something we haven't done in YEARS.
We made the drive into "THE CITY" to see the beautiful 
Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree.
The Colonel and I grew up in Queens, NY and love New York City.
When our kids were little, we lived in Paterson, NJ and would often make the 
drive into the city to see the tree.

The drive in through the Lincoln Tunnel, thankfully was NOT crowded.
Years ago when I worked in the city, I used to take a bus to get to work every day 
and there were some days we would sit in the tunnel for over an hour...
It now costs $13.00 to get into the city...

If you ever visit the city, you MUST visit this beautiful church...
Such a "touristy" thing to do...
A little snack...
Lunch...
We had such a GREAT time and decided 
to go back again next year.

    That looks like such a fun day! I loved seeing the pics from 10 years ago. That was the Christmas Rich and I were dating and then we were married the next year. Time passes so quickly!
