C-130 over Camden Yards

Baltimore is where I have spent the largest percentage of my life. I love it!!!!

This city is a wonderful contrast to it's southern neighbor. While some would call the Washington DC/North Virginia area a bit pretentious, Baltimore has a more "Blue Collar" atmosphere like Philadelphia or Boston, this is more appealling to me.

But keep that to yourself, we want to keep it a bit of a secret......

The Inner Harbor has been extensively revitalized since the early 1980's, and is a great destination on a sunny day.

You can walk around harborplace, the science center, the aquarium, and many other locations.
