A couple of weeks before Thanksgiving Macy's tests their new balloons in our bucolic Flushing Meadows Corona Park. This is (for some reason) a 'private' event. (How four balloons seen from the Grand Central Parkway can be private is a question only Macy's can answer) Katy and cousin Hannah enjoyed their first glimpse of Buzz Lightyear, Horton, a Smurf, and a small green star.
