22 Years ago. It's one of those things that EVERYONE will remember exactly where they were when it happened. September 11, 2001. Maybe you were waking up for school like I was. Maybe you were making breakfast for your family. Maybe you were at work already. One of the most heartbreaking days in American history.

Last year, on September 11th, I was in New York City and I dropped by the 9/11 Museum. I took photos and videos inside the museum, I wanted to share them with YOU! These photos are from my Instagram Stories one year ago. Prepare yourself... They're not the easiest photos to see.

Survivor's Staircase:

This staircase is still standing (for the most part) and was the staircase that thousands of New Yorkers used to escape the World Trade Center on 9/11.

22 years later, and all of us still remember where we were that morning. If you ever have the chance to go to New York City and see the 9/11 Museum... TAKE IT! Even the memorial at Ground Zero is incredible.
