We are in Baltimore at the Inner Harbor Marina. Bill and I have stayed here before when the Red Sox have been in town playing the Orioles. Downtown Baltimore is really nice. Our slip overlooks the harbor, which is full of water taxis, dinner cruises, duck tour boats, and even a "pirate" ship.
There is an aquarium, a science museum, and a long boardwalk that features ice cream and other treats, etc. Saturday we arrived and hung around preparing for Andrea's visit. She flew into Baltimore on Sunday afternoon. We spent the rest of the day on the boat catching up. Sunday night Bill, Andrea and I went to Aldo's in little Italy in Baltimore. Bill and I had been there before with Joe and Nancy and we knew we had to go back. It was delicious.
Monday we got a late start. Andrea and I walked around and explored a little more (we saw the hotel - and the fans - where the Sox are staying, but didn't catch sight of any of the players....) before we walked to Camden Yards for the game. The Sox won, and our seats were awesome. We were on the third base line and it was a beautiful night. Same as before, Sox fans outnumbered Baltimore fans 10 to 1.
Today Andrea, Bill and I went to lunch and then the Aquarium. It was a fairly nice (though very expensive and very crowded) aquarium. There was a huge shark tank (we saw a Tiger Shark and pointed it out to Andrea who was with us when we were snorkeling), a big ray tank, turtles, fish, an outside "tropical rain forest" atrium, etc. It was another perfect day / night. The Sox won again, and tonight we sat in an "all you can eat" section of the park. Tomorrow we are going to hang around on the boat and relax / get sun until Andrea's afternoon flight. And Bill and I might get a visit from Dave and Molly, which would be awesome. Our last Sox game is tomorrow at 7:00.
