For as long as I can remember, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has been a part of my family's Thanksgiving tradition. As most of you know, my dad marched in Broadway's Longest Running Show as a Midshipman, but he hasn't been back (for the parade) since. With Jules in NYC this year, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to haul the Thanksgiving party train up to NY to experience the parade live and wander around the city staring at storefront window Christmas decorations and David Blaine's latest act of stupidity.
The plan was to head out to the parade route and take in the sites. The problem, however, is that I seem to have caught "something," and the rain isn't helping. So, I sent the family out into the elements, and I'm home, watching the Broadway shows (usually my favorite part since I can check out new stuff -- though I saw most of this year's offerings on the Tony's) and babysitting the felien. It's a pretty good trade-off if you ask me.
So, Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Whether you're braving the elements on the streets of New York, firmly ensconced in front of a television, or anywhere in between. I'll see you guys when I get back!!
