(22 Nov 2018) The balloons and the bands braved the blustery cold to make their way through Manhattan for the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on Thursday.

The 21 degrees (-6 Celsius) at the start made it one of the coldest Thanksgivings in the city in decades.

Bystanders refused to let cold temperatures put a damper on watching the parade, breaking out the blankets and sleeping bags.
