Ground Zero, Manhattan, New York
On September 11th this year, it will mark 8 years since the 9/11 attacks on the US. It has been a long time since I blogged about 9/11 but when I was in New York, I visited Ground Zero and the Tribute WTC Visitor Center. I don’t think I will ever be able to grasp what happened that day but I will never forget it.
Project 2,996 is a project whereby bloggers remember the lives of the victims of 9/11 and not their deaths. I think it is a wonderful and touching initiative and I certainly hope to take place this year. If you are a blogger, please consider going through to the site and volunteering to write a memorial. They really need the support as only 366 bloggers have volunteered so far this year. You can also take part if you don’t have a blog so visit the site for more details (I’d also be willing to host your post if you don’t have a blog).
