The topic of this museum was too intriguing to pass up. We had to see what would be on display at such a museum. The one major thing I learned at this museum that I didn't know, but wasn't surprised, was that the first porn flicks were made shortly after the invention of the movie camera!

Before we even started our trip to fly to New York I had looked for a good Mexican restaurant that would have live entertainment for Cinco de Mayo. Most of them were totally booked up which I guess was not surprising. I finally found an available reservation at a Mexican restaurant but the earliest available was at 8:15 PM. It said nothing about live music but I guess we lucked out as the did have a live Mariachi Band playing when we arrived.
We arrived at the restaurant around 7:30 PM, a bit early for our 8:15 PM reservation. The waiting area was packed with people even extending to outside the doorway. But, most of those waiting did not have a reservation. We let them know at the desk that we had a reservation. They said we'd have to wait at least until 8:15 PM anyway as all the tables were currently full. We squeezed our way over to the bar area and eventually found some bar seats as people left. We sat down and ordered 3 Margaritas enjoying the live Mariachi Band as we indulged in our drinks.
While waiting at the bar for our table the people next to us recommended some Tequila shots. Cheryl bought all of us Tequila shots. It was much better Tequila than I had ever previously tasted. Above left and right, Barbara and Cheryl Mack enjoying their Tequila shots.
