Thankyou DHammer53 and stockmanjr for turning out on a cold Wednesday night. Both myself and my nephew had a great time. We ended up at 55th and Broadway for the parade the following day, and that worked out fine. I'm home now and have the parade photos on line already.

Schedule full for 2006, but this sounds like a great reason for an extra SAN-JFK trip in 2007!
Okay, its a re-qual vs. vaction-time problem, and I feel silly mentioning it so far in advance, but I would like to see that!

Post here if you're going to watch them blow up the balloons the night before.
I've attended many balloon blowups. Lots of fun. Starts around 7:00pm on the upper westside. Continues through the night. We're meeting at Starbucks Columbus Ave and West 81 Street.

Surely you mean 7:00 PM, Wednesday, November 22. @:-)
And no, I can't make it this year. Some year when you're watching the inflating, rather than the popping, of the balloons would be my preference.
