Woke up to breakfast at the hotel. We then had about a two-hour drive to New York. We arrived in the city to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. The weather has been fantastic, by the way. After our bridge walk, we had the coach take us to Washington Square Park. It was just a short walk to Bleecker Street Pizza for lunch. Then a coach took us to the 9/11 Memorial and Museum. Mr. Kearney and I met Peggy, one of our favorite tour directors from years ago. The 9/11 Museum is powerful and emotional, although you can't take photos in most of the exhibits. A fun walk through the High Line was followed by a quick 20-minutes stop at Little Island, an interactive park. Then it was down to Little Italy for dinner. After that, we checked into the hotel, the Marriott Marquis in Times Square. In fact, I can see much of Times Square from my hotel room since we are on the 26th floor. We had a short walk to Rockefeller Center for a magnificent view of the city.
