Day 3 - NYC (pt 1)

We went hard on our first full day in NYC. First stop after bagels & muffins was at the 9/11 Memorial. The boys both have some general knowledge about what happened on 9/11, but it was a different experience for all of us being there and trying to explain what happened to these kids who weren't even born for over a decade after the attacks occurred. This was my second visit to the memorial and it remains a sacred and truly moving place to stop and remember, or as we were doing today, educating our kids about what happened.

After the Memorial, we got lost in the Oculus for a while before finally finding our subway stop. From there we made our way to The Battery where we checked out the sea glass carousel and hopped on the Staten Island Ferry to catch some glimpses of the Statue of Liberty.Leggi altro
