It's a Wonderful Life....

Of course, Bob was interested in the NYPD, so we took in the Police Museum, and he was able to chat with a few members. The police presence is VERY high, and it makes for a very safe feeling in the city.

We were walking back to our hotel through Bryant Park and saw a fire being put out in the NYC Library (a very old building) Luckily it was just a small, contained fire....we then went inside....what an amazing place!

We took the tour to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Ellis Island was so interesting....walking the hall where thousands had walked to their new life filled with hope. What a privilege to live in North America......thank you, Lord for Canada.

Then, there was ground zero. We went through the church that stood firm even when it was right at ground zero. A reminder of the song we sang in Sunday School.....so build your house on the Lord Jesus Christ....and your house on the Rock will stand firm.
We went through the memorial museum....I could not read all the information.....it just hurt my heart too much. I cried.
