On Wednesday the 12th of September, Milda and I decided to try to get some things from home. We had left with nothing but Milda's purse and my office bag on Tuesday, and given the scale of the destruction it seemed unlikely that we would be going to stay at home soon.These photos chronicle our return trip past numerous Police and National Guard checkpoints into downtown Manhattan.
We decided to take a Second Avenue bus as far South as we could, and then to walk along the East side of Manhattan before turning West by the Seaport.
The bus stopped at 14th Street and we were directed over to Avenue A before we were allowed past a security checkpoint. The street was closed to vehicular traffic (except for emergency vehicles), but there were a lot of pedestrians.
We passed this mural that had been painted overnight.
