Another very fun beautiful day in Baltimore....we left around 10 for a breakfast spot.....Miss Shirley's (the original) was packed; Panera had folks coming out the door waiting; Corner Bakery closed? WHAT? Can't figure that out as so many people were out and about but possibly cause of the big race/going on. Many streets were closed cause of the thousands running a 5K, 1/2 or full marathon. Maybe their employees where running with the throngs? At any rate, we decided to go to Barnes and Noble and eat at Starbucks, plus check out the new books!
Maeve broke her record last night - slept 12.5 hours!!!!!!!!
We had thought we would take the water taxi part way to Fort McHenry and then walk but long lines so we decided to walk again all the way. It was such a pretty day and we took our time. Lots of folks were doing the same thing and eventually we were walking down the street (all closed to traffic) and finally onto the grounds of Fort McHenry. Enormous crowds !!!
Fort McHenry
before all the massive crowds
Enjoyed visiting with the Blues families and then our nephew and Godchild, Tom arrived with his fiancée, Samm.
After the show, we all walked back to the Tiki Barge and had orange crushes (Mark had beers) - so fun to sit and chat on the water with lots of boat traffic leaving the show. Got the scoop on all the wedding plans (next July 24th in Milwaukee).
Enjoying our orange crushes - Samm, Tom, Pat

We rode with Tom and Samm to Dalesio's Italian Restaurant (where we ate with Ryan last night. It was sooo good, Tom and Samm love Italian, so.....a no-brainer - let's do it again!)
Wonderful again - food, wine, chatter!
Back in our room tonight - tired, happy, and stuffed! It was a great end to our time in Baltimore1
