A Trip to the Rockefeller Christmas Tree
Christmas in New York just doesn’t begin until the tree at Rockefeller Center is lit up. And thanks to last night’s ceremony, we can really feel like we can kick off the season. The spruce tree came from a small town in Pennsylvania, but the tree itself is no small feat. It stands 74-feet tall and features 30,000 lights! That’s actually 5 miles of string lights! In attendance last night was, of course, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and performances by Neil Diamond, Cee Lo Green, and Carol King. Much to the disappointment of every teenage girl, the performance by Justin Bieber with Mariah Carey was actually pre-taped and he was not there.
Visiting the tree is practically a must for all New Yorkers and of course it’s the biggest tourist attraction during the holiday season. It’s actually best though if you can view it during a weeknight because weekends are literally a mad house and it’s nearly impossible to stop for a minute to even get a picture of the tree. A charter bus will easily get you to Manhattan for a viewing. And while you’re there, get a little shopping done and perhaps take in a show.
You actually have until January 7 to take a charter bus service before the lights are taken down and the tree is turned into lumber for Habitat for Humanity.
