Baltimore was another highlight. We stayed at the public docks for
only $1 per foot and we were right in the middle of the Inner Harbor for the
4th of July fireworks. Baltimore has so much to see and do, and I
think we conquered it all! Ricky, Beth's son, and his friend Ryan,
joined us for a weekend. We saw two Oriole's games in Camden Yards -
won one, lost one! We also found a market under the highway overpass
that was outstanding. Baltimore is very boater friendly, even has
trash boats that go around and pick up the trash from the water, then they
take it to a huge conveyor belt that puts it in the dumpster.
Baltimore's visitor center was huge, consistently staffed with at least a
dozen very helpful people. We toured a submarine (Torsk) and visited
the Aquarium. We had free wireless internet service and great
neighbors at the docks.
