As an early birthday present, my sister, who I shall call Frampton, came for a visit all the way from San Diego.
On Frampton’s first day here, we visited the World Trade Center site, and the Trinity Church – St. Paul’s Chapel. Despite its close proximity to the site, the church endured the attacks. This is the view from the church grounds; the open space you see is where the Towers once stood.
We also checked out the Feast of San Gennaro in Little Italy. (Well, sort of. It was absolutely pouring rain, so technically, we checked out a bar in Little Italy. And picked up some (amazing) cannoli to go.)
Other highlights included a view of the Statue of Liberty by way of the Staten Island Ferry, Central Park, Times Square, and lots of dessert. (Apparently I have developed an expertise in where to get sweets in Manhattan.)
What a fabulous gift!
