In New Jersey we have a big complaint. Our big complaint is about how hard it is to get off the road. Our activities included mini golf and the Pop Shop.
Our big complaint concerns New Jersey's roads. The problem more specifically involves their exits. When you're driving down the road, you shouldn't have to deal with missing your turn and then having to drive another thirty minutes just to turn around and go back. "New Jersey somehow has never heard of the clover leaf design for roads," grumbled my parents as they missed their turn and had to drive for thirty minutes just to do a U-turn. It becomes even more frustrating when the turn you just missed was your long awaited restaurant for dinner.
New Jersey's mini golf has become one of our favorite mini golf places. The course itself could use some fixing up, but I will give them grace for that because they were closing permanently in two weeks. My favorite part about this course involved how long it was . They had several acres of land, so not only did you have a long course, but you also had beautiful scenery as well. The holes took skill too. This course took more than lucky shots and blind putts.
On one hole my dad became stuck at the bottom of a hill, and he used all six strokes to try to get up the hill. At a typical mini golf course, you would putt into a clown's mouth on the last hole, but this one had you putting across a narrow bridge with no railing. You had to use every ounce of skill to even putt your ball half way across the bridge before it plummeted to its doom. That course is definitely in one of the top three courses.
Eating at the Pop Shop in Collingswood I tasted a new type of grilled cheese. Pop Shop made it onto Throwdown with Bobby Flay
for their famous grilled cheese. My problem with the grilled cheese became how much stuff they added to the grilled cheese. When you eat a grilled cheese, you should taste grilled bread and cheese, not bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, BBQ sauce, or onions. It should have cheese and bread, nothing else. In my opinion, after we compared the sandwiches, Pop Shop should have won instead of Bobby Flay. Pine Creek Golf Course mini golf ranked one of my favorite top three courses in the United States. The Pop Shop, however, didn't rate anywhere close to my favorite grilled cheese. I'm just happy we actually made it to Pine Creek Golf Course mini golf and the Pop Shop, though, with those crazy New Jersey roads.
