The Cross My Heart Duet

    After lunch, I take the girls to see the 9/11 Memorial and Battery Park. We decided to admire Lady Liberty from afar and skip the ferry ride over, so we would have time to do a little shopping in SoHo before we head back to rest our poor feet until it's time to shower and dress for dinner. That's the thing about New York; no matter how much time you have, it's never enough time to do and see all the things, which means we all have to come back again.


    I text Tony on our way back to the hotel to confirm our reservation time. We have three hours, so we decide to take a quick nap before we get ready for the evening. Of course, that's a bad idea. We oversleep and have to quickly throw ourselves together and then make a mad dash for the restaurant.
