Bryant Park Christmas Market

It was great to have Rachel in town for the weekend! We got a late start on Saturday morning but then knew where we were heading...the Bryant Park Christmas Market.

The market was less crowded than the Grand Central Terminal Xmas Market and there were lots of treasures to be found. Rachel boughts some stocking stuffers, a gift or two and a hat for herself.



In between strolling among the many booths, we checked out the giant tree and the ice skaters. The line to skate was a good 100 people long!



We also made a quick stop in the Alberta tent. You could stop in for free hot chocolate, a ride on a ski simulator or just a warm-up in a comfy chair.

There seemed to be similar booths at Grand Central, but we both loved the charm of Bryant Park. The Park is a sanctuary among the skyscrapers.

More on Rachel's visit tomorrow.
