RE: Pure Inspiration (NYC/Week One)
Thanks, @clio! I fixed that typo...oops! : ) How did you like the city when you visited? We miss green grass and trees. Where we're staying in Brooklyn there's concrete and pavement as far as the eye can see.
The first time was in the early seventies, we bought a car in New York and drove to LA and back, the last time was a few years ago for my work as a principal. We visited schools in NY and Pennsylvania. We stayed in Manhattan so we had a big park! For me it was a great feeling to walk the streets I saw so many times on TV, to visit MoMa (I felt like a little girl in a candy store) and other museums, Brooklyn Bridge, Harlem, Battery Park and the surroundings where once the Twin Towers were. The schools upset me sometimes, but I saw a lot of motivated teachers. In others words, it was fantastic and I hope to come back one day.
