The tree lighting in New York


Rockefeller center chrstmas tree lighting 

              The 2010 Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree was lit for the first time on Tuesday, November 30, 2010 with live and taped performances. The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is a world-wide symbol of the holidays in New York City. The tree is lit with millions of colorful lights and topped off with a cyrstal star. Thousands crowd the sidewalks for the event and hundreds of millions watch the Tree Lighting Ceremony broadcast live across the world.

          Last year I visted this event and it was amazing. All the lights sparkled in your eyes and the christmas music warmed your heart. This expirence was a beautiful one. Millions of people surround you with beautiful smiles on their faces making it hard not to smile and enjoy the lighting of the tree with them. This also makes me wonder how they fill such a big tree with lights? This also makes me think about how close Christmas is, making it even more exciting for me. Im sure I will visit there again sometime !

This blog post is for the December blogging contest.
