I wanted to go to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. I got to visualize my grandma, Irma Senko, at 9 years old coming from Slovakia, seeing New York. I needed Kleenex. On Ellis Island, I got to walk where she walked. I got to see photos of immigrants like my grandparents. They came on the busiest day ever. I needed more Kleenex. I found them on the ship's manifest. More Kleenex. It was more moving than I thought it would be. Three of my dear friends went and we stayed with a fourth. We had a 4 day long weekend. It was AMAZING!
More to come.... next post.
