23rd Day of NY Christmas - Citi Pond



On the 23rd Day of New York Christmas I went for a stroll at Bryant Park for a little shopping. Bryant Park is locate on 42nd between 5th and 6th Avenues right behind the Public Library. During the holidays wonderful hand made artisans set up little glass shops filled with treasures. There is also a few food a sweets places. There is skating and it is called "Citi Pond". As I watch the skaters and wait for my date to go have dinner at Celsius (a pop up restaurant)I look up at the sky and see the Empire State Building dressed in its Christmas colors of red and green. After dinner I visited a few of my favorite little shops and took a walk around. Look what I see??? A female Soldier for Soldier Boy! Oh how wonderful I must find him. I think he will love her right away, she is blond and tall. I am such a hopeless romantic! hohoho! xoox
