Inner Harbor Kicks in Baltimore

On to Baltimore for some nautical adventures in the inner harbor.  This is a fun town; I loved the red brick apartments and alleys along the water, and Lucy had a blast.

Among other famous ships in Baltomore is the USCGC Taney; "The Last Survivor of Pearl Harbor."  The USCGC Taney was only Coast Guard ship to survive the attack on Pearl Harbor during the Second World War, and by the late 1960s is was the last US vessel that had seen action during the attacks that was still in commission.  What an honor to see this historic ship!  Baltomore's inner harbor is full of historic ships.

Baltimore is also home to the National Aquarium, counted among the best in the United States.

The aquarium is truly amazing, and we had a lot of fun learning about the great nautical history of Baltimore.  What a fun town!  Lucy ended her tour in Baltimore's Little Italy, which is right next to the Inner Harbor.  I ate some great Veal Marsalla at Cafe Gia's--a beautiful little cafe covered in art on the inside and out.
