This week's Photo Hunt theme is Awesome.
About 5 weeks ago, the humans visited Manhattan and went to the National September 11 Memorial. This opened last Fall and a museum adjacent to the Memorial is still being completed. You can see it in the background of this first picture.
If you are going to be in New York and want to visit, you should go online quite a bit ahead of time and reserve tickets. Weekdays are easier to get than weekends. There is no charge but you have to have a ticket issued in your own name. Only a few tickets are given out at the site each day. Here is the website: http://www.911memorial.org/. Or if you would just be interested in learning more about the Memorial you can go here.
I know it has been over 10 years, but my human is still not ready to go down there. I don't know if she'll ever get over that - heck, she still misses the cat before me too and she's been gone almost as long.
ReplyDeleteYep, definitely awesome. Purrfect post.
ReplyDeleteSparkle: Mom had felt she wasn't ready to go there either but it was very uplifting to visit. Perhaps it had to do with the sunny day and the brightness of everything on that day, but it was OK and she felt like they were honoring those who died by going.
ReplyDeleteWow. It must be something to see.
ReplyDeleteThat was nice to see all that from your view and not the news or something. It does look like it has been well done. Thanks for the pictures.
ReplyDeleteSimba Mommy, thank you for this Coincidentally, my son (the teacher one in NC) just came back from NYC and also went. He just put a picture on his FB page. Yours is good to see and shows much more. Thank you for posting it.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to see how the new construction is getting close to being finished. We are so pleased to see how good the area will look when it is all completed.
ReplyDeleteLuv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
