it was very interesting to be in new york for the 10th anniversary of 9/11, especially in our downtown neighborhood. from our apartment we could hear the names being read at the memorial. multiple roads were shut down and there was a huge increase in the number of police on the streets. in battery park a flag was placed for each victim.
each night for the week the twin tower lights were on.
and the new world trade center tower was lit in red, white, and blue.
we are now looking forward to visiting the memorial. the first available tickets are in october, so it is looking to be a late fall venture for us.
