  1. A lot more in your itinerary than in our plans! We have Monday - fly to Albany, Uber to Cooperstown. Tuesday - Baseball Hall of Fame, Wednesday - Uber to Albany, train to NYC. Thursday - Garment district or 911 Memorial, Friday - Garment district or 911 Memorial, Theater - Dear Evan Hansen, Saturday - Theater - Frozen, the Musical, Sunday - fly home early evening. Everything else is whatever we feel at the moment.
