At 14.45 hours local time, I heard my pregnant daughter-in-law cry out: Peter, they are bringing down the world and she became so pale and for a moment I feared for her unborn baby, she was so cramped. Together we wayched the second plane hit, awfull. They must have known what they did, nobody turns a plane the way they did in the last couple of seconds, just to make sure that the tower would crumble and fall.
The rest of the day was awfull,more planes came down and the home-situation became worse, so my daughter in law and me made a long walk outside alongside the canal where the house was situated. She cried a lot but finally became calm again.
Even today it haunts me once in a while, those pictures of New York and the fire etc. But when flying, I don't have any fears at all. If your time is in, it's in.
I hope that the brave New York people will rebuild the towers as they were, not smaller. They must NOT diminish the size because of those lunatics. Let them know that no one ever will bring New York down, never ever....
God bless America and its courageous people.
