Princeton is a very beautiful small town with lots of interesting architecture in the town and university. Very small place and lots of large impressive churches and no sign of any pubs or where you can get a drink outside. Good place for these 6,000 students here who no doubt are very serious (physics and all that stuff...where Einstein went, where "A Beautiful Mind" was filmed). 12,000 employees at the U. for these students. Gee, they even beat out Royal Roads Military College which had a ratio of one to one.

Pretty sleepy town...not a lot to do but they did have a rather interesting little local museum on the "lost" Princeton. Looks like they haven't preserved their heritage as much as they could have. Unlike Georgetown that in 1950 made the entire place heritage and put restrictions on everything. It shows....it's a wonderful place.

So now off to Maine and area for the weekend. Will be quite a long driving day...about 7 hours I think. Then into Boston for three days then home. The time has flown by.
