Macy's Parade

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

This morning we went to Diana's cousin's apartment to watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade. The apartment is on the 7th floor overlooking Central Park West, and we had a nice view of the bands and floats and balloons.


You'll all be happy to know that Neil Diamond (not shown) is alive and well, at least well enough to stand on one of the floats from 80th down to 34th St.

Snoopy (also not shown below) was looking particularly worn, from our vantage point, perhaps even more weathered than Neil.

A few pictures:


Margaret with her step-cousin Georgia and (floating behind) Ugly Doll.



Lachlan missed Smurf and Spiderman and a few others due to a minor faceplant stepping out onto the balcony. His noggin was not fit for publishing without an NC-17 rating.



The parade just kept going and going and going...




New Orleans was well represented at the parade this year.





These are southern belles dressed up like candy.

Amazing parade. I'm glad Lachlan's balcony accident wasn't any worse. Seems like you were up pretty high!
