New York 2nd December 2015

Today we caught the metro through to Queens to the shopping mall as it was raining today. We spent a few hours there, then caught the metro home. We had a wee kip as we were getting ready for the lighting of the Rockefeller tree. We got caught up in the news about the killing of 14 people in San Bernardino California so by the time we left it was about 6.30pm. The place was heaving but once we got through the security checks we just worked our way to the front where we actually had a great spot. The concert started with James Taylor, also performing were Mary J Blige she was brilliant. Sting was on he was good. Andrea Bocelli was in fine form and there was a guest appearance by Michael Buble who was fantastic. Then at 9.00pm the Xmas tree is lit, it was quite spectacular and it is a lovely tree. I have been so blessed to have witnessed all these fantastic sights my bucket list is well and truly completed and I am so thankful to Arthur for allowing me to do all these things. I love you so much.
