Every year on this day we take the LIRR into the city, get lunch, walk around the store (looking very official I might add), take our picture with Santa and of course get Starbucks.
I have been looking forward to this since we confirmed the day back in September. It was just after I was hired for my new job. Just like any other teacher, I checked the calendar for the upcoming days off and noticed that I would have a nice 2 week long vacation!
Check out some scenes from my visit. I am missing lunch because I was too hungry to snap a picture of my salad from Cucina.
We walked all around the store and even checked out the display windows outside...
I was happy to get some extra cardio in. Every little bit helps this time of the year.
The last time I was on 34st I was driving Santa's sleigh!
On my break..
Around 2:15 we made our way up to the 8th floor for our annual Santa picture.
The 3 hour wait... except if you are an Elf of course :)
It was so nice to see my pal Santa again. We chatted for about 10 minutes about the parade, family and what I want for Christmas.
We caught a 3:51 train home. Bar time was on the train this year. I love the Starbucks in Penn Station. No matter how busy they are they always work quickly. I think some of the Long Island Starbucks should take notes.
Only 3 more sleeps until Christmas... Where has the time gone?
