| NEW YORK, NEW YORK! | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| At the beginning of May, 2006, Mom and Hao (my Chinese sister for a year) and I drove to the NYC area to pick up Katey (my "real" sister) from college for the summer after her junior year. She's a student at Nyack, a Christian college associated with the one I went to, Toccoa Falls. During the weekend while we were helping Katey load up the cars with her stuff, we took a day trip into the Big Apple. It was super fun, and also emotionally touching as we went to see Ground Zero. That was also the first time I've ever been to NYC. Here are a few of the camera-captured moments from our day in New York, New York. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
