Welcome to Crabtown and Monument City

Annapolis

Although this is long overdue, as are basically all of my posts, I wanted to share with you my spring break!...even though it was sometime is March...over a month ago...
My boyfriend and I took a little trip to the Baltimore-Annapolis area in Maryland.  I was skeptical at first because I wasn't sure how prepared we were at managing a trip by ourselves.  I was pleasantly surprised when the trip went incredibly smoothly, thank goodness.  

We stopped in Baltimore first where we explored the Inner Harbor.  I was really looking forward to seeing the USS Constellation, the Torsk submarine, and Fort McHenry, since Baltimore is the Monument City.  But alas, both the Constellation and the Torsk were away for repairs, and by the time we got to Fort McHenry it was closed.  We did walk around taking pictures on my Diana of Federal Park and the neighborhood behind it.  I haven't gotten the film developed yet so I can't show you what the houses looked like, but they were the CUTEST things I've ever seen.  They were all different colors and tiny with cute little front doors.  I want to live in one.  Also, we saw the World Trade Center and the aquarium.      Overall, it was a really fun day.

On the second day (the last day), we went to Annapolis which is now my new favorite city.  The buildings were so old and right up against the water.  There were sailboats everywhere and cute little random shops down every street.  I didn't want to leave! 

World Trade Center, Baltimore 

I found this sign on our way home somewhere in Maryland.  I just had to take a picture of it.  I've never seen my name spelled the same way that I spell it.  It was a special moment... 


Love Always,

Sounds like an interesting spring break. I definitely never left the state for any of mine, but that's mostly bc i was always broke. Oh well. The sign photo is cute. You can tell you are excited.
