Always Rediscovering NYC


When planning new trips, one can't help but reminisce about past trips. Earlier this year, I returned to one of my favorite cities -- New York City. What made this trip special was that I was able to introduce NYC to my sister for the first time.

Getting the opportunity to experience the City through her fresh eyes was such a joy. And New York is so sprawling that it is difficult to visit the same spot twice. As a tourist there, you're always discovering new sights and sounds.

On my sister's NYC bucket list was visiting American artist Robert Indiana's LOVE sculpture near the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). I had seen the LOVE sculpture in Free Love Park near the Philadelphia Museum of Art, but did not know that its original resides in New York.

Even though I've visited MoMA before on past trips, somehow I missed this bold and colorful sculpture standing at a corner in mid-town Manhattan. I'm pleased that this time we didn't miss it.
