My family is multi-cultural, so we're celebrating Christmas and Hanukkah at the same time. I'm looking forward to my daughters first holidays, even though she won't have a clue what's going on.

And I live about 45mins - 1 hour and a half (depending on traffic) from NYC - whoever is going - you'll love it, be sure to stop by the store displays, and try and take in a show - especially the Radio City Christmas Spectacular - the Rockettes are my husbands favorite (he always drools over them) And if you get a chance, be sure to go to FAO Schwarz.

All the best - happy holidays.

The only downside: the crowds/people. Literally, I went up last year and everything was packed and everyone was watching the people assemble the ball in TimesSquare! I was almost late to my "last time" seeing Les Miserables! (But I saw it twice this summer HAHA). No I love NYC during Christmas/New Years, just so crowded!

Have a great time whoever said they're going!

Aww that sounds so nice! I bet you make the residents so happy. I remember when I was on work experience at a residential home and me and my mate prepared a quiz for them, it was like the highlight of their year!
