CCIP participants took advantage of the long weekend to take a fun, sightseeing-filled tour of Boston, a crucial location in America's road to independence. Forty-three exchange visitors traveled together to the New England city to take in the festivities of the Independence Day holiday and also see the natural wonder of Niagara Falls.
Student leaders Shu Ling, Vivian, and Stella contributed to the organization and arrangement of the trip, which unfolded as planned.
"Boston is so beautiful," Shu Ling, a Nanyang Technical University student, commented. "It is so easy to see the whole city on foot in one day, and there are interesting sites everywhere." Indeed, Boston is known for its dense cluster of historically relevant locales, and it was important to the exchange visitors to see them all. "We spent our time in Boston doing one thing after another," Shu Ling continued, "so we didn't have much time to spare. It was a very active experience!"
After their time in Boston, the visitors took a quick trip to Niagara Falls to see the world-famous waterfalls that separate America from Canada. They are a natural wonder that are well-known around the world for their one-of-a-kind beauty.
Stella, a student at Hong Kong University, elaborated on what she liked about the Falls. "They are so breathtaking in their beauty. Also, people from all over the world came to see them, so it was exciting to be part of such a big group of travelers in the same place at the same time," she said.
Upon returning to Queens, the exchange visitors are already preparing for their upcoming visits to the Statue of Liberty and 9/11 Museum this week.
