Christmas Card from Chicago

From Macy's on State Street to street markets at Daley Plaza, there are gifts to fulfill everyone's tastes and budget.

Most of the vendor's were from towns in Germany but their signs were too dark for the video. The city is beautiful all decorated in lights and the shoppers are out in droves this year.

Ah! The Christmas Cactus! What a great tradition. I understand hanging bulbs, ornaments and garland is easy to do but taking them down is a thorny job. Cheers to you and your family!

Here in Switzerland, it is the Christkind that brings the gifts on Christmas.

Lovely music and love pics.

Wishing you and your family a wonderful Christmas!

macy's is failing. In the 2 years since they killed off Marshall Field's their stock went from $45 a share to $5 a share. That's about a $90 drop! I am sure if they would kept Marshall Field's as is, they wouldn't have suffered that as much!

Go back to NYC carpet baggers macy's and give back Chicago Marshall Field's!!
