Where To Trick Or Treat In NYC
/
Halloween is just around the corner. I grew up in Japan, when I was my son's age (5 years old) I didn't know anything about Halloween. My first experience with Halloween was in 1998 at Castro, San Fransisco. It was just right after I moved to San Fransisco from Japan. I remember that It was a very crazy day for me, and see so many drag queens! I had a really great and fun time. I wish I could have experienced Trick-or-Treat when I was a child. Now, Japanese people celebrate Halloween. I enjoy very much to go Trick-or-Treating with my son in the City. The Halloween experience is probably different for a child living in the City compared to the suburbs. We livie in Manhattan, and my Trick-or-Treating experience has been to go to the shops in the village. This year, I'm thinking to take him to a bigger Halloween event in the City. Below are some events in different areas of the City, see the list below. :)
こんにちわ：）ハロウィンが近付いてきました。ニューヨークにお住まいのみなさんは何処にTrick-or-Treatに行かれるのかな？今では日本でもハロウィンイベントが行われているみたいだけど、私が息子くらいの歳（息子５歳です）の時なんて、ハロウィンの事なんてなーんも知らなかったな。私のハロウィン初体験は１９９８年サンフランシスコにて。サンフランシスコも大きいハロウィンイベントで有名な街なので、その時の驚きと楽しさは今でもよく覚えています。私も子供の時にTrick-or-Treatを体験したかったですが、今、母となり息子と一緒になってTrick-or-Treatを楽しんでいます。私たちはマンハッタンに住んでいるので、大概の方々はビルの中に住んでいて、そのビルの中に気軽に入りお菓子をもらいに行くというのはありえないので、Trick-or-Treatをするときは人のお家に行くのではなくって、お店などにお邪魔するのです。今まで息子が小さかったので、近所のお店にTrick-or-Treatに行くくらいでしたが今年は大きめのハロウィンイベントに参加しようかなと思っています。私が今チェックしているマンハッタン内のイベントをシェアさせていただきたいと思います。下記のリストを見てみてね。
