The Parade...

We were in NYC  for Thanksgiving...
there is nothing like seeing the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade in person.
We had a front row view because we stayed at the Midtown Hilton Hotel.
It was difficult to get pictures, often we were just too close.
More tomorrow, I'm completely exhausted!!

Even when we lived in NJ, I never watched the parade in NYC but always wanted to, so thanks for sharing your photos, Debbie. It looks like a great time was enjoyed.

Your pictures are making me excited to get to be at the Rose Parade this year - hope I get half as good of pictures. Sonic - how did I miss that one on TV (so many of my grown children's favorites in this year's parade).

Fun parade and photos, the turkey and Snoopy are some of my favorite balloons.

Adrienne said...

What a great "iconic" experience! You are brave to face the cold and the crowds...it looks completely worth it! Snoopy is always my favorite! And Santa, of course!

Fantastic photos from the parade. I bet it was exciting being there in person and so close up. Every time I think of the Macy's Thanksgiving parade I am reminded of the "Friends" episode where Underdog gets away and causes havoc in the parade. Funny episode. - So glad you had a great time at the parade.
