This year for Thanksgiving, the BF and I were pretty excited about being together, staying in NYC and having friends and family over. The big plan? To attend the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. I'm not sure I've ever woken up early enough to even see the parade on TV (*shame*) but somehow waking up at 5:30am to actually see it in person became the mission. And I would say it was worth all the prep.
Look at those faces as the first balloon rounds the corner!
No wonder- it's Spiderman!
And the doughboy!
The M&M float as Broadway with Wicked, The Phantom of the Opera and Spamalot on display.
Horton was very cute. And very big.
My crew mostly favored the Sesame Street float. Oscar the grouch was hanging out on the back
