I wish I was in NYC right now!


?s=21



?s=21


Explosive cheers of joy are currently erupting across New York City - this is definitely not a ghost town!!!!!!!


Cars and trucks are honking, people are leaning from their windows clapping and saucepans are being clanged. Haven't seen anything like this since the nightly cheers for essential workers battling coronavirus.

Very quiet. We are pretty suburban though - large properties so too much space between to hear anything.

I'm almost tempted to drive in, but by the time I get there it may be over. I miss living in cities, where people come out and celebrate when this happens. In 2012 we rushed to Times Square when we saw there was a crowd there to watch Obama's victory speech.
