Re: Going to Baltimore for the first time!

Done

Just got back from a weekend in Baltimore with the my girlfriend. The flight was too long and had a ton of turbulence. We were pretty jet lagged so we stayed in most of Friday night except for dinner.

View from our hotel room (top/conceirge 31st floor of the Waterfront Marriott). The room would have been $400 a night had it not been for Marriott points One of the perks of traveling every week for biz.






Next morning went and walked around the waterfront/Fells Point.

Some historic lighthouse




View of the waterfront restaurants, people boating, etc…




Great Aquarium




Heavy Industrial/Port Area nearby




Bunch of $1M+ condos being built




Some Scotts playing bagpipes for a Scottish Festival




Some old ships on display







After the tour on foot we took a horseback ride in the middle of traffic, and toured Little Italy. There must have been 2 Italian restaurants on every corner.






Then it was time to get ready for the festivites. Big charity event for breast cancer put on by Johns Hopkins. I forgot the name of the hotel it was at, but it was the 2nd oldest ballroom in Baltimore so we were told. Theme was 1920's, so you know I had to look sharp.

Overall it was a good trip. Great place to visit, but I sure don't want to live here. Expensive, and all the nice places are surrounded by really run down areas.
