Metuchen
where I slept	Apartment entry-way. (No, I don't know why I took a picture of this.)	My friends' apartment complex.	Theater along the walk to downtown and the train station.
Metuchen train station (with train).
Princeton
The first sight at Princeton upon disembarking.	A look at some of the common old brick buildings on campus. One can almost see the chill in the air by how the light hits the tree branches.	Albert Einstein statue in park by downtown Princeton (the town).	The witty base of the Einstein statue.
Neat statue in the same park.	Paper on bench next to the man. (The statue is very detailed.)	Right side of paper the man is reading. (The statue is very detailed.)	Left side of paper. (The statue is very detailed.)
Big statue in the same park.	The formal gates to enter the university.	Main building by that entrance.	Elaborate building on campus.
Ah, the ivy-covered walls of another building.	Funky statue #1.	Funky statue #2.	Mini street sweeper. (I'd never seen one of these before!)
Set of funky statues (#3) -- legs walking. (Just outside the art department / art museum.)	Another perspective of the walking statue.	Neat saying on a bench.	Good example of typical gothic Princeton university architecture.
New Princeton science buildings and "grassy" field in front of them.	Meeting room in the lobby of the Carl C. Icahn Laboratory. I love that the light from the window washed out the background -- it lead to a neat effect!	The inside of the meeting room.	Funky statue #4.
Princeton had many sayings embossed on buildings. This one struck me both as a connection to Princeton ("gothic towers") and the appropriateness of the setting for a story by Lovecraft ("unseen things that do not die"). I believe this quote appeared in McCosh Arch by the english building, if I remember correctly.	The interior of Princeton's church.	Funky statue #5.	An extravagent Princeton building.
Funky statue #6.
