Thanks for coming, Sharon.
Actually, I was living in New York (Astoria, Long Island) when I got married, but there was a huge cultural difference between my family and my husbands and I really did feel like I had arrived in a different world - which I had. It was a real learning experience for my barely 18 year old self and I wouldn't trade it for anything!
This shows how I felt at the time. I got over it though and enjoyed Brooklyn greatly. I think it's the first place I ever got a sense of neighborhood.
Have a great week!
Judy
