The sun gods treated us to a special Thanksgiving weekend, warming us up with 60-degree temperatures. Sunday marked the last time of the year where I would be able to sit at the park in a short-sleeved top, run along the Hudson without a sweater, and watch the Central Park rollerskaters without my feet freezing. After brunching in the Upper East Side, a few of us walked to Central Park to view the foliage and stare in bewilderment at the old man who bounced non-stop up and down as if he was having seizures while rollerskaters and dancers glided around him.
We walked down 5th Avenue to help digest our brunch and check out the holiday lights. I typically hate walking down the tourist-clogged streets of 5th Avenue, but during this time of the year, the lights entrance me, forcing me to slow my pace and stare up at the sparkling buildings.
Bergdorf Goodman had the best holiday windows I've ever seen. The theme was "Carnival of Animals" and each of the five elaborate windows was designed using different materials. Here we have paper...
...mosaic...
...textile...
...metal...
...and wood.
Saks Fifth Avenue's windows paled in comparison to Bergdorf's so I didn't even bother taking pictures of them. After we left Saks, we passed by some other buildings with holiday lights.
Trump Tower
Fendi
Cartier
