It's a Yule Tide!

Last Saturday, my boyfriend and I met up with my brother in New York City for Santacon. It was really fun!!! Something like 3000 people dressed up as Santas, or some other holiday thing. Here are the best photos:

So Many Santas! (If you look past the train, you will see a red and white mass. Those are more Santas.)

We are Santas!

Santas at a Toys for Tots bar (these bars gave proceeds to Toys for Tots).

We finally came to my brother's favorite bar: the Crocodile Lounge. They give you free pizza when you order a beer.

After that, my camera ran out of batteries, which was unfortunate, as we had a very fun time, including purchasing Christmas cookies from a church we found, and basically walking around New York being Santas. I think we spread some holiday cheer. Small children were happy to see us.

Falcon

I saw a falcon today, walking back from the gym. It landed in the grass a few yards from me. I was surprised at how big it was up close. I didn't have a camera with me. It looked up at a nearby tree and I think it was watching a squirrel thet was there. Then, it flew up to another tree and watched the squirrel some more. It was cool. I like falcons.
