Day out in New Jersey
It was a perfect weather to be heading outdoors on 8th June 2013. A group of 32 students were on a Transexpress bus, heading to New Jersey.
Students first alighted at Princeton University -- one of the eight Ivy League universities in the US. The campus had the Orange Key Tour which lasted for approximately an hour. The tour guide brought us to points of interest, such as the chapel, which was catered for their graduation ceremony as it could accommodate up to 5,000 students. Throughout the tour, everyone also got to know more about the history of Princeton University and the life of being a Princeton student.
Another highlight within the campus was the Princeton University Art Museum. The museum was absolutely fascinating. They had collections which ranged from ancient to contemporary art, having over 72,000 works of art.
There was a Princeton University Store, located across the campus. Students bought apparel and gifts which were embedded with the Princeton trademark. There were also many small shops selling all kinds of unique stuffs within Nassau Street. For instance, the Paper Source shop was selling different types of art paper and other craft items.
After spending a few hours within the proximity of the Princeton University, students travelled to the legendary Cheesecake Factory that was located at the Quaker Bridge for dinner. Apart from the famous cheesecake, the food they served was also heavenly. Students had a great time eating and laughing their hearts out.
As there were some spare time, students went to the Quaker Bridge Mall which was beside the Cheesecake Factory for some shopping. Some had a few shopping bags with them at the end of it.
Thereafter, students hopped on the bus again to head back to Flushing YMCA. Along the way back, the bus driver made a detour to the Brooklyn Bridge so that students could take quick snapshots of the Brooklyn Bridge during the sunset. This also marked a beautiful ending to the New Jersey trip. It was a chill out yet fulfilling trip.
