I is for Iced Coffee (on Easter Afternoon)

Enjoying iced coffee on a perfect Easter Sunday afternoon

 

The weather was perfect today for people and hat watching at Rockefeller Center. I enjoyed my favorite coffee drink, iced and light, while Pep LeMonkee and I enjoyed watching what will most likely be one of the last days of ice skating for this season.

 

This year's Easter décor at Rockefeller Center featured tree branches and hundreds of lilies. It was lovely, but I missed the bunnies of years gone by.

 

There were pretty hats and more eccentric hats and it was fascinating to watch. The Easter Parade, which isn't actually a parade, but an endless stream of people walking around the Rockefeller Center and St. Patrick's Cathedral area on Fifth Avenue.

 This is my favorite moment of the day.

I've been happy welcome bloggers who are participating in the A to Z Challenge. I'm falling behind, but will keep going until the end of April. I may not be fulfilling the letter of the Challenge, but I'm keeping with the spirit. I hope everyone is enjoying our adventures around the world. I'm also linking to my friends in Pink Saturday. For the last several weeks I haven't been able to link up and I'm not able to analyze the problem issue. I'm giving it another try this evening. 

 

It was a glorious Easter day in New York, but that was not the case everywhere. I want to offer my sympathy to those injured and the families of those killed in Sri Lanka. My heart is with all of you.

 

Dear friends, I hope you had a bright and beautiful Easter and a wonderful Passover celebration. As ever thanks for visiting.  

 

Please note: I'm attempting to cut down on my use of plastic straws, but was unable to find a paper straw and walk through the crowds with an open cup.
