Baltimore! Part 3

New Year's Day we woke up hungry. After packing up our suitcases to leave with the doorman for our flight out later in the evening, we set out to find food.  We passed this very cool church. I'm not sure what style you call this but I liked it.

Close up of the Baltimore Washington Monument.


 Our plan for the day was to do a tour of these great ships.  I swear their website said they'd be open on New Year's Day.  They were not.  We had hoofed it downtown to the bay since it was a fairly nice day so we continued on to walk around the area - we hadn't been in this part of Baltimore yet.


The harbor is pretty and there is a nice walkway around much of it.


Madison was threatening to jump in.  She didn't.


They did let her drive a ship.  On the pier.  LOL!


Another of the ships we were supposed to have toured.


And a submarine.  I liked this view showing how narrow it is.



Next stop was this cool little park with this hedge tunnel.


And some fun swings. I joined her in this one and we relaxed in the sun for a bit.  Later, we went to a tiny Italian restaurant where we had GIGANTIC desserts.  Neither of us hardly dented them.  Should have taken a picture!


And then it was time to head to the airport.  Throughout this whole 21st birthday trip, Madison hadn't been carded a single time. Until we were at the airport bar and ordered a beer.

Happy 21st birthday my dear daughter!
