R&P Offering Day Trip to New York

The St. Mary’s County Department of Recreation and Parks will host a day trip to New York City on December 11.

With so many unique attractions, world-famous museums, theaters, and skyscrapers, there is always plenty to do in New York City. Even with the cold weather, New York City is transformed into a winter wonderland — from the Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center to the Christmas window displays at Macy’s and Saks Fifth Avenue, ice skating or riding a carriage through Central Park. There are endless Christmas sights to enjoy during the holiday season in the Big Apple.

Window shopping takes on a whole new meaning as Manhattan’s most celebrated department stores unveil their annual holiday windows. From Macy’s and Lord & Taylor to Bloomingdale’s and Barneys, Christmas in New York City would not be complete without a visit to these windows decorated for the holidays. While there you can take the time to Christmas shop for that special someone.
