Chopsticks

Because of the merger between Toys R Us and F.A.O. Schwartz the giant piano at Schwartz has been on the net and on the news today. Besides Tom Hanks in Big my special memories of it are watching my grown up daughter, Amanda, hop nimbly all over it picking out a tune when the girls took me there when I visited Seattle. Tonight I watched some videos on UTube and was enchanted with the way it brings out the child in everyone. Do you have a memory of the giant piano?
