We're going to NJ

[hsapiens]

Finally, finally, finally have gotten the better half to commit to the dates he's available for traveling to NJ! We're going to a wedding on Sat., Sept. 16 but will be around for a couple more days (Sun., Sept. 17 - Wed., Sept. 20). We're flying out the evening of the 20th.

Since he isn't thrilled at the idea of going to the Brooklyn Museum - which totally boggles my mind but I suppose not everyone grooves on archaeology - I'm trying to think of things to do in the City that will interest him. He's big time into American history, military history, and enjoys hikes. Obviously, some time in Central Park is called for and South Street Maritime Museum looks like a good possibility as does delving into history in and around Wall Street. There's probably a night at Spamalot in our future, as well.

jalabert has already given me some excellent suggestions and I'm researching them. Any others are welcome, as well, since this trip has to please BOTH of us. :)

You could come to the closing ceremonies of my three-day charity ride on Sunday, September 17th. :) It's at the LGBT Center in the Village. Past speakers include Alan Cumming and Lili Taylor. Not sure who it is this year. Always a heart warming experience.

I work during the day, but if you guys make dinner plans in Manhattan on the 18th, 19th, or 20th, I might be able to join, depending on my to be determined rehearsal schedule for the play I have opening the week after that.

What time, roughly, are the closing ceremonies?

I'm almost sure we'll be having dinner in NYC on 18th and 19th. On the 20th, we have to be on a plane in Philly, Beyond that, I don't know. Everything's up for consideration at this point.
