Today's Rojak Timeout is brought to you by Una Ragazza in New York.
To celebrate the occasion with a public event befitting its significance, the department store chain Macy's puts together an annual parade with giant ballons, falloons (float-based balloons) and balloonicles (self-powered balloon vehicles) of well-known cartoon characters.
As my new apartment is just steps away from the start of the parade, I decided to join the inflation viewing on the eve of Turkey Day. Here are images freshly taken from a cold night out.
Happy Thanksgiving, y'all!
Thousands of tourists and locals took a stroll one chilly November evening
The balloons are finally in sight!
The CBS news crew prepares for a live segment
The best seats in the house... yeah, daddies!
Shrek!
Hola, gato!
A very dry piece of sea sponge
Imagine drinking this amount of Kool-Aid
The Wimpy Kid makes his debut at the 2010 parade
Kermit's eyeballs look even bigger up close
Ronald McDonald coming to life
And a whole lot more floats awaiting their ascent into the skies come Thanksgiving morning...
