Rockafellar Ctr.

What's the best part of Christmas? For me, it's Rockafellar Ctr. Christmas just wouldn't be the same if I didn't go. Everyone should at one point see this beautiful site. The tree's height can not be put into words. Forget about pictures you will only the trunk and yourself in the picture. The rink, which is right below it, is jam packed with people. Except to wait online to skate at least 2hours, and yes this is all in the freezing cold. Not to mention Macy's down the block puts dolls in the window doing different things people crowd around and it's like an organized event. Security guards line you up to see Macy's windows full of goodies. My family's ritual was then to eat at Tad's steak house a couple blocks away but someday I would love to eat at Tavern on the Green, one of the most expensive restaurants in the city. You get into an elevator in the middle of the sidewalk and take it underground. The restaurant is under Rockafellar Center and it is directly lined up with the iceskating rink so the wealthy people eating can laugh at us clumsy ice skaters. I am a true romantic so my favorite part is how at least 4 guys on the ice skating rink, throughout the course of 4 hours, get down on one knee and ask their loved ones for their hand in marriage. Everyone in the rink stops skating, the hundereds of people walking by stop walking, and everyone stops to clap and cheer... for every couple. It didn't matter how many times it happened we still clapped and watch the girl freak out and hug their fiancee. Someday that'll be me...
