Sunday we went to NYC for the day. One, to see the 9/11 Memorial, and two, to see more of Times Square. I'm not a huge city fan, but I like NYC and Times Square. Lots of shops, lots of interesting people, lol. It's just fun.. for a little while.
We always take the train in.. can you imagine trying to find parking for Matt's truck down there? No thanks. But anyhoo.. we went to the Memorial first. It's definitely a little upsetting to see, and beautiful at the same time. I'd never been to the East Coast prior to '07 so I've never seen NYC with the Twin Towers intact. To be standing next to those pools and to see how huge those buildings were, and to try and fathom the sort of destruction that brought them down, is definitely an experience. I'm glad I went even if I was nervous to go, definitely something everyone needs to do at least once. Ok, enough yapping.. on to some of my favorite pics.
