Goodmorning Baltimore

So ross and i decided that we needed to get out of logan and go on a trip (of course this was in december!) and we decided on the Caribbean. I have always wanted to see the caribbean and so i have been pretty excited all semester, especially when it was snowy and miserable. I have decided to break up the different places so the whole trip wont be as daunting to post. our first stop was baltimore. we flew in the night before and stayed at a beautiful hotel right on the inner harbor. we were on the 31st floor out of 32! we had a great view of the city. it was a clear day but very windy so we were very cold! luckily we had packed hoodies because we would have frozen!!




we wandered around the inner harbor and went to a recommended seafood restaurant. we both got crab plates (because everything i read said we had to get crab) and it was so great! it really does taste different than the imitation kind :) the waitress was way nice and taught us how to take the meat from the legs. we had a great dinner and payed an arm and a leg (typical tourists!) and i felt like i had a pretty good taste of balitmore. we also spent some time at the inner harbor the day we flew home as well. we toured the submarine torske and the uss constellation which were so so great!! i had always wanted to see a sailing ship up close and it was so interesting!! we also went to the national aquarium which was crazy cool!! there were shark tanks that you could get up close to and all kinds of interesting displays of different ecosystems. i love love love museums of any kind! i love to see how people display things and how they convey information. someday i will hopefully work at a museum because that would be so great. baltimore was a lot of fun! hopefully some day we can go back

little italy! it was so cute and the small buildings kind of reminded me of scotland.
