lighting and limos

well i have had a bit of touristy fun within the past week that i wanted to tell you about. first we went to the Christmas tree lighting in Rockefeller Center here are the pics from that. if you didnt see it on tv, i am not too sure what you missed, because we didn't see anything either. well barely. but beyonce, the jonas brothers, harry connick jr, miley cyress and tony bennett were all there. not to mention britney not quite ready to perform but announcing she could do. there were what seemed to be millions of people there, and we saw two fights break out because so many people were shoving their way to the front. exciting you can imagine. but we stayed til the end and it was fun. we should have been there earlier, but whats new. here is what we saw.

we stopped in at Kenneth Cole to do a little "window shopping" i couldn't resist taking a pic. this would have been the best place to watch the lighting. warm with a perfect view! and the people below were waving at us.




my alloted personal space for the night. it looks way bigger in the picture.




brr. i love my fur collar.




there it is in all its glory.




check out the manly minks in the background. wow.




we ended the evening by walking through times square to get on our train home.




THEN. saturday night we celebrated nikki and katies birthdays. we went to eat dinner in china town. we were eating and it started snowing! lots of snow. like piling up on cars snowing. so we walked to canal st to get cabs to go to our next stop and happened to hail a limo instead of a cab. yes with lights, loud music, fake flowers, cheap old whiskey and a character of a driver. i would say this was the highlight of my evening. it was fun. we were driving through nyc in a tacky old school lincoln town car limo while it was snowing, i mean i dont think that could happen anywhere other than NYC. is this the life?
