New York Christmas
The date was Nov 18, 2004. Looks like Christmas came a couple of weeks early this year on 7th Avenues.
Actually, Christmas time starts on Christmas Day! Between Thanksgiving and Christmas is Advent, a period of waiting for Christmas to come (well, waiting for Jesus to be born). Merry waiting to all!
Don’t be silly — Christmas begins on the day after Thanksgiving at 6 am when the mall opens. What are you, some kind of communist?
