The skyline from our tour boat on the Inner Harbor. The day we were there the Volvo Ocean Race was in port. It’s a sailboat race around the world. I think it’s mainly to push the new line of Volvo cars in an exhibit. We got on the one hour cruise that took us out to Fort McHenry and back. There are water taxi’s, lunch cruises, dinner cruises to tour the water and buses that tour the downtown area. The inner harbor is really nice with shops and restaurants, museums like the Science Center and the National Aquarium. We had little crab cakes and shrimp for lunch in the food court instead of one of the spendy restaurants. I lived in Maryland a long time ago before the city redid the Inner Harbor, they did a fantastic job, it’s really a neat place to visit. Here are the rest of the pictures, merged in with our DC trip.
