Annapolis makes a great day trip from Baltimore. Once a major colonial city it is now a small suburban community of Baltimore. However due to this fact it maintains much of its colonial architecture with a real small town feel.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Great Architecture and small town feel
Cons:Crowded in summer
In a nutshell:Great place for Colonial Architecture.

Last visit to Annapolis: Nov 2006

We have been in the same restaurants! When I was there, I wanted to see the flag with 13 stars. I couldn't.

Very nice historical view. Was here in 74 for a cross country race with the squids. Had a small town feel to it back then and seems to have kept it.

Annapolis is a wonderful place to visit--the inner harbor, historic homes and general atmosphere of the town makes for a very nice trip. We love it! You've got some nice pictures, Jim...

I can see why all roads lead to the inner harbor, it looks like a great place to spend an afternoon.
