GUIDE - Road Trip: Close to Home attractions for Dec. 1

This week, we check out some great holiday lights across the tri-state. Then we get an ice skating lesson in Westchester before we take in some special performance and pop-ups - a "Santa Clauses"-themed pop-up bar, the Big Apple Circus at Lincoln Center and an all-Yiddish version of "Fiddler on the Roof."
