We have Radio City tickets.

We will be coming into Port Authority and will have some luggage with us. May just head to Penn Station to drop off luggage and go to Macy's to see Santa again.

Any special ideas for this year? My son will be on the mend from ear surgery, so we can't go all out on activities.

This is our 3rd Annual Trip.

We have done:
Rockerfeller Center
Wintuck
Bryant Park
Macy's
Mac&Cheese Restaurant
Times Square - M&M Store, ToysRUs,....
Sax Windows

The kids are just happy riding a subway and an occassional bus. Everything else is gravy!

Frozen Hot Chocolate at Serendipity. We did it last time we were in town, but it wasn't Christmas. It will be crowded and they don't take reservations for dessert. We went at an off-peak time and waited about 20 minutes for a table

Weather permitting, the Central Park Zoo and the carosel!
Tea at Tavern on the Green.

I always loved the Christmas tree at the Metropolitan Museum of Art when I was little.

Another good online resource is www.mommypoppins.com (http://www.mommypoppins.com).

Also weather-permitting, but there's an ice skating rink in Central Park as well.

And, if your kids like to ride the bus, how about one of the bus tours? We live here and I still think it would be a fun thing to do with DD at some point.
