We went over to New York around 10 and found the Path which will take us back after the musical tonight to New Jersey. It was right beside the World Trade Center. Then we went uptown to wander around a bit.
We made a visit to the Museum of Folk Art and saw the quilt exhibit. Very impressive – the quilts were all made in the 19th century and very beautiful. Three floors of quilts were displayed with lots of description as to their origins. Walked uptown to Central Park and along the west side to the Museum of Natural History. As it was around 3 we joined into the last walking tour around the museum and while it did not go everywhere it did it a number of highlights. The leader provided some good information about the museum and its displays including the dinosaur exhibits, the gem display, the space display etc. There was a lot more to see but it was around 5 when we finished so we left to go pick up our tickets for the musical at the Marriott located at Times Square. Picked up the tickets had a nice drink in their revolving restaurant and then went to 44th street (about 2 blocks) away and saw a great musical. Lots of songs that everyone of our generation would recognize. It is much the same as Jersey Boys. The music is great.
Left the theatre after the musical, caught the subway (E line) down to the Path where we caught a train to the Grove Street Station in Jersey City and then a $7 cab ride back to the marina in less than an hour.
