NOTE NEW DATE A Wonderful Day Out...in New Jersey! BAPS Temple and Old Rusty

Details

### Starting Point: BAPS Temple 112 N Main St, Robbinsville Twp, NJ 08561. Meet at the big gold statue.

This is going to be a photo day for the ages. 2 epic stops, with lunch at one of the best deli's in Philly or New Jersey.

First stop is the BAPS Swaminarayan temple complex in Robbinsville, NJ. A huge group of incredibly intricate, ornately carved buildings, statues and pool. One of the best architectural photography spots I've ever found. There is no tripod use, and when we do the tour inside the mandir there is no photography at all- including cell phones. Because the temple can get crowded, we'll get there when they open at 9:00 AM, so there are fewer people to deal with.

Second stop is lunch at Radin's Deli (486 Evesham Road) in Cherry Hill.

Being a native New Yorker, Duke can't wait to check out the pastrami...

Third stop is Big Rusty in Hainesport, NJ, about 20 minutes from Radin's.
1404 NJ-38, Hainesport, NJ 08036

The entrance is a dirt road just past a sign for a law office. I missed it the first time I was there, there was no street sign for the road.

The buildings around Rusty are gutted with the interiors covered in graffiti- an indoor Graffiti Pier!

And that's all, folks!
