Manhattan!!

It was a long-time dream come true to go to Manhattan during Christmas time! And the afternoon we arrived it started snowing ... the picture above is close to Time Square.

Beautiful, beautiful Central Park covered in white.

Manhattan life ... and publicity for the popular Christmas Spectacular in Radio City Hall.

Impressive skyscrapers wherever you look...
I also need to mention two cafés/coffeeshops we especially liked: the French Roast Café in Greenwich Village which has the most tasty Cappuccino and New York Cheesecake you can find ... and Oxford Café which has such a great quality food - sandwiches, soups, cakes ... both are higly recommended!!
And certainly the wonderful Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center!!
It was an absolute unforgettable vacation for us and we enjoyed it thoroughly.
NY is such an exciting place!

Your photos are beautiful! I especially love the one of the tree in Rockafeller Center! I would love a Christmas season trip to NYC and was able to live a little bit of that through your pictures!
Happy New Year!
