I'm planning to bring my 7 year old dauther for her first trip to NY - we're coming in for the Thanksgiving Day parade and will be in town for 5 days.

I've check out a bunch of the tourist websites but would be so appreciative to hear from the locals about what to keep an eye out for, when to get there, the day before blow up event... etc... any inside secrets. I have a short list of hotels on the route but I'm not sure if that means a balcony seat can be had or if it just means you get to see Snoopy's ear brush by the window?

I've been to the city many times but never for the parade.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

P.S. could you arrange to have snow while we're there... she's never seen snow (we live in Tampa FL) : )

It's possibly already late to get a room in a hotel with a window on the parade route. But you can watch from the street too! Bring a thermos with some cocoa and have fun!
