NEW YORK CITY: FIRST TIME EVER



BY JANET STEINBERG

Although I’ve been to New York City dozens of times…done dozens of things…taken dozens of tours…I called this my “First Time Ever” trip. This time was going to be different.  This time I would do things…and go places…I’ve never experienced before in The Big Apple.

GROUND ZERO MEMORIAL: Without a doubt, number one on my “First Time Ever” list had to be a visit to the Ground Zero Memorial.  I had been to Ground Zero shortly after 9/11/2001, when I tearfully tossed a white rose into a muddy hole in the ground. However, it was now time to see how the indomitable spirit of America had survived.
