deelaundryHad a great time last week toodling around New Jersey with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hithah on our PPTH/Kal Penn/RSL tour of looking at things and imagining what went/goes/will go on there. *\o/*
Yes, that is my favorite kind of touring around, and no, I don't expect anyone else to agree with me how AWESOME it is. Excepthithah, of course.
We stayed at a hotel that's across from the Forrestal Campus of Princeton University, which is undoubtedly where PPTH is located in House-land (in spite of the building that has the PPTH exterior being on the main campus in real life). Look, they're even building a new extension:
The sign says "University Medical Center of Princeton at Plainsboro."
On Day 1 and Day 2, I graciously let Hithah take the pictures (OK, really I forgot my camera), but on Day 3 Hithah had left for the airport already, so I got behind the lens for a particularly self-indulgent photoshoot.
Marquand Park! Four years ago, I set my very first Housefic in this locale based solely on internet research. Now here it was in person... and it was lovely.
Oh, a gorgeous park. If you're in the area, stop by for a picnic, or to teach your kid to ride a bike, or even just for a nice walk.
Here's a sunny part of the park you could get married in:
Or a shady glen also appropriate for that:
With a tree carved by doting lovers over the years:
There are also paths through secluded wooded areas. No public restrooms (of the kind, ehem, "used" by House & Wilson in my fic), but very peaceful all the same.
