My third time at the Met, the end of Mom's trip & a Broadway show

Oh, Yeah!

Catching up on the last few days...

On Thursday,

we took Mom by Sotheby's Institute of Art so she could see the institute and library!

After visiting 51st and Lex, we walked over to Tiffany & Co. to pick up Mom's improved necklace

Jac and I stopped on the diamond floor after customer service...

and I did not buy anything. 

 

From there it was just a short walk over to the Museum of Modern Art.

Friday night was Mom's last night in the city, so we decided to end it with a bang.  We went to see Catch Me If You Can on Broadway!

Although I hate to admit it, I enjoy watching Gossip Girl.  So, much to my enjoyment when receiving my playbill and seeing that cast as Frank Abagnale, Jr. is Aaron Tveit:

The show was amazing!  I recommend seeing it, however, in my searches for the images and video below, I found news that the show is closing on September 4th!

 So, here is a snippet of a performance (from the 2011 Tony Awards) of Aaron Tveit and Norbert Leo Butz
