And The Springs, it is like out of an old Hollywood holiday movie. And yes Macys is always a great Christmas go to. Awesome vlog!

    I was so lucky to visit in 2017 and have a local guide. I got to see/do most of the things you recommend in your video! Yes absolutely! I would just add if you can splurge on the horse drawn carriage ride throughout central park. The guides are great and point out all the places used in movies like Elf or Home Alone 2 (that was big for me 😂) It was a great memory!

    • @mariabedolla5673

      No horse drawn carriages! It’s cruel and inhumane, there’s bikes and nothing beats taking a walk to capture the essence.
