NYC Day 4

Saturday's agenda included going to the 9/11 Memorial so our day started with a subway ride down to the lower part of Manhattan to meet Scott and the band!
The new towers are beautiful and architecturally amazing!

There are 2 reflection pools commemorating those that lost their lives on 9/11


The names of all those deceased is on the side of the pools


I was saddened walking through the memorial and even more so when trying to explain to Cara what happened on 9/11 and how it changed our country so much.
We walked to the financial district on our way to the South Seaports where we shopped and ate lunch


After lunch we walked to Chinatown for more shopping
It was crowded and crazy but Cara loved it
She got this for her room
And these cute sunglasses

From here we walked 2 blocks to Little Italy and had dinner at LaPuglia's which was delicious.  Cara went with the band to go see Lion King which she LOVVVVED!

After the show the band's charter bus headed back west to Indiana but we still had 2 days to go!
