Today I went to the Easter Parade on 5th Avenue and figured it out.
Apparently he ice skates in Rockafeller Center,
shops at Sack's 5th Avenue,
and takes pictures with his fans
at the Easter Parade.
The Easter Parade is not really a parade. There are no floats, marching bands, old fashioned cars, or giant balloons. Actually is a great chance for everyone to stroll down the middle of 5th avenue which is usually hustling and bustling with cabs and cars and buses and bikes. So where does the parade part come in? A bunch of people walk down the middle of the street and take pictures of about 50 folks that have come out to show off their easter bonnets. Any one can participate and anyone can take pictures. It is actually the most unorganized parade in New York (technically I think the Halloween Parade in the Village is more unorganized). I heard about this laster year and didn't want to miss it for a second time.
Here are just a couple of the people and bonnets that I found wandering the street.

I read your blog and just envy all the fun you have... not that I don't love my kids, and life... but it's fun to step out of it and read about yours! Keep it up!
