NYC and Track Meet

With a field trip to the 9/11 Museum and a harbor ferry tour in New York City as well as a track meet in Atlantic County, we had a very busy week last week! Here are some highlights. Thanks for sharing your photos with me; there are also some on here that my sister took. 

Freedom Tower



We arrive at the Oculus - the most beautiful train station I've ever been in.

This firetruck was used to fire the flames before debris from the falling towers damaged it.

We stopped for a quick lunch at Brookfield Place.
