Memories from Finland


1. "​I came home from work and my daughter was watching CNN as one plane had already hit the WTC. I put the broadcast to tape on VHS and saw the second plane hit.
I coached soccer, so I had to go to the practice with my daughter. Told the girls what a historical day this was. They were just 12-year-olds.

2. "I remember returning from work and opening the television. Commentator told how (the first) tower of the World Trade Center has collapsed. I got a bit curious about what kind of movie this is and wanted to see it a little bit more since I'm a movie buff. Then I realize that it was live coverage from New York.
Not long after that, the second tower collapsed and I was sitting in front of the TV for the rest of the night without even remembering to eat my dinner.
