Transit question
If one were to, theoretically, take a day trip into NYC, see a matinee and an evening show on Broadway, and then return home in time for class the following afternoon... what would be the most cost-effective way to go about it?
I'm kind of torn between just taking the Greyhound, or driving up to Newark and taking a commuter train into the city. Between gas, parking, and fares, the Greyhound would probably actually be cheaper, and I wouldn't have to worry about finding a parking lot, let alone one with overnight access. (I'd be coming back to the car at about one in the morning.) On the other hand, I like being on my own schedule, and I don't particularly want to sit next to random creepy people on the bus for five hours.
Thoughts?
