On Tuesday we stopped off at Grand Central Station to see the holiday train exhibit at the Transit Museum shop. I always enjoy toy train exhibits but this one had a distinctive New York City flavor and that made it more fun. There was even a stuffed King Kong climbing the model Empire State building.
The buildings, tiny people, checkered cabs and buses on the streets added extra detail and charm. Little children were ringed around the enclosure, their eyes wide. I was one of many adults snapping photos right and left.
After we finished with the train exhibit we walked around Grand Central some more and I took photos of the holiday-themed desserts in Zaro's window. They looked delicious but almost too beautiful to consider eating.
For the finale, we watched the holiday laser show on the station's ceiling. I didn't attempt to photograph this, because it was all moving too fast. After it was over we headed home, having feasted our eyes on this most colorful season.
