~:[CH9 - Day 61]:~ Remembering
The students weren't alive when 9/11 happened. It's amazing how long it's been since it happened. However, while they were not alive, the impact of this day will live in their hearts and minds forever. We woke up early and dragged our way to Battery Park and caught the ferry. It was freezing on the way, but not bad on the way back. I didn't feel as rushed as normal, as we even had time to stop for a bite to eat before heading into the museum. We jumped over to the Brooklyn Bridge which was way too crowded and finished up on the ice at Rockefeller Center with a group that had to be my worst group of ice skaters ever (on average), even though there were a few who actually ice skating. Regardless, much like they do in other areas, they persevered, never gave up and actually ended up decent by the night's end. I am tired, but we created memories that will last a lifetime and I only hope that this will continue. Here's to another day in the books!
