So this weekend is the 10 year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on America. It was a tragic day, and there is a lot to remember. What do you remember about that day? What were you doing when you found out what happened.
 
I was in Disney World (we flew down on 9/10/2001).
I remember watching the news with my mom, but I didn't really know what was happening.

Our vacation was kinda ruined, and we had to be picked up by my aunt and her boyfriend, and we drove home (like a 24-hour drive).

I was in kindergarten then, I should have been at school at the time, but my mother let us stay home that day as we really didn't feel like going. Like an hour after we made that decision, the mess was on the news. That's all I really remember...
 
I was a freshman in high school. Found out what had happened in English class, then found out a bit more in Science. At lunch, we all watched the news coverage on a giant flat screen. I don't think we learned a whole lot that day.

I don't really remember anything except I kept wondering how long the newspaper was going to keep putting articles about it on the frnot page.

I was actually sick from school that day, but I don't remember anything really about that day. I do remember seeing them talking about it on the news forever though, and I didn't really know why it was such a big deal.
 
I was almost 4 when it happened. It was my sister's first day of kindergarten, and when I went to pick up my siblings from school my brother told me about it. I remember it like it was yesterday...

I was at school, 2nd grade, the teacher explained it but it wouldn't be until some years later that I realized the magnitude of it. Being so young, I didn't know how bad it was. I am happy to say my dad bought an extra paper for me that day as a keepsake to show my kids when they're old enough and explain what happened on our nations darkest day ever.

One day I would like to visit ground zero to see it in person, its one thing to see it on TV but nothing can do more then seeing it in person.

That's awesome that you got a paper. I wish I had one. My sister bought one from the end of WW2, which was ironically one of the greatest days in US history.
