Baltimore

What a Great City!!! The company we had was even Better!!! It seems strange to have Geo Nova tied up to a dock, not to mention in the middle of a large city. First off this gave us an opportunity to give the boat a bath and top off her water tanks then plug in to keep the refrigeration and freezer going. We could walk to a bagel shop, grocery store and replenish my beer supply.

Mike and Carol arrived the next day and we had some time to catch up on things. Baltimore is a great city to walk in. You can walk for miles without loosing sight of the waterfront. We had a nice mile and a half walk to a great restaurant the first night. Nicer yet we had a great walk back to the boat just before the sky opened and it poured. Friday we visited the national Aquarium a fantastic place, everything from frolicking dolphins, to diving puffins and also every imaginable type of fish. That night we got to see a baseball game at Camden Yards. The Red Sox lost to Baltimore but it was great to be there.

Saturday brought us another treat, friends from home. Dave and Carol flew down to stay on the boat and take in a game at Camden Yards. We had a pre game party on the boat with other friends from Maine, Scott, his wife and daughter along with friends of Dave’s and Mike and Carol came for the fun. This game did not prove any better for the Sox but the company couldn’t have been any better. It was great just to have some relaxing conversation with our company.

Our next treat was to visit with my Cousin and her daughter for a delicious Saturday brunch. It was so nice to visit with them and see her beautiful home.

Now off to our next port of call, Annapolis Maryland. We had the best sail here we have had in a long time. The wind was in the right direction and the strength was perfect which made for a speedy comfortable ride. We are anchored in a nice quiet creek outside of the busy city of Annapolis. We will have at least a 2 mile walk to get into town.
