I started my Christmas walks and I was fabulously rewarded. I found some incredible scenic treasures that I will be sharing in the next week. This is the first time in three years that I'm not recovering from an injury or surgery and it is a gift to be able to walk and enjoy the decorations of this season.
One of my favorite places at this time of year is Fifth Avenue. I saw just a small part of the decorations there, but the ones I saw were fabulous. The treasure I discovered at Bergdorf Goodman -- a "luxury goods department store" -- was dazzling. It didn't follow the usual Christmas colors, but instead each window was dedicated to one of the arts, following the theme of "Inspiration."

Literature

Architecture
Music
Seeing the beauty of these windows brought back the feelings of excitement of childhood, when I would see the Christmas window in the Hartford department stores. Each of the Bergdorf Goodman windows had wonderful details that enhanced the magic that had been created. I can't wait to see the other department stores and discover their themes and decorations. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
I'm quickly realizing that this month will fly by, as it always does. One of my goals is to make a list of everything that needs to get done and then do it. I don't have much shopping to do, but I do have a lot of wrapping and mailing. The first gift gets wrapped tomorrow!
I am so glad to share Christmas in New York with my blog buddies. Wishes for a wonderful December.
