9/11 memorial

Time to take on New York. Yesterday was not a brilliant start but the only way to go now is up.
Just one minor hic-cough on the way up though. Thought that our metro cards covered all travel. Nah. Not the express buses like the one we got yesterday and were on this morning. The lovely bus driver allowed for our innocent mistake and we were off to put a positive spin on the day and New York.
All our time today was spent at the 9/11 Memorial Site. We explored the Westfield Centre on the site first. The architecture of the Westfield Centre is impressive. On the inside the ceiling of the complex resembles the ribs of a sailing ship, on the outside it appears to be a large mythical bird.
The memorial museum - solemn, informative and extremely well done. Ditto the memorial ponds outside.Weiterlesen
