ramp to Manhattan Bridge

Transportation

I waved goodbye to some students as they headed over the bridge and onto Brooklyn.

I wasn't sure where I was going to go. By this time, it dawned on me that this was a terrorist attack. I thought that it wouldn't be smart to head uptown, near the Empire State Building, incase that too, was planned for attack.

Having attended NYU twice, I was very comfortable with that area and knew there were really no tall buildings around there. Worse came to worse, I could always sleep in Washington Square Park. I headed over towards NYU.
