New York a year after 09/11

When I think of New York I always get a bit emotional and it reminds me of the amazing time I had there.

Since I was just a little kid I always wanted visit The Big Apple and I couldn't wait to finally see that amazing skyline!

New York is an amazing city with people from all different cultures coming together in this interesting melting pot.

Finally in 2002 I had the opportunity to visit this unique metropolis and I will never forget the moment in which I first set foot on American soil, an undescribable feeling of joy!

Together with my brother I spend one week in New York and every single day we walked through Manhatting looking for all the interesting things to see. I couldn't get enough of it and I wish we would have had more time.

I actually had to throw my shoes away at the end of the week! The only thing I truly regret about my trip is that I didn't get to see the famous Twin Towers, something which made New York even more unique.

Unfortunatey I missed the ocation to see them by planning my trip a year after the awful happening of September 11th, 2001.

The strange thing was that my return flight was set on the exact same date but a year later, September 11th, 2002!

The airport was filled with security guards and I can't even remember how many check points we had to pass. Anyway, New York is an amazing city and I would recommend it to anybody!
