Baltimore Travel Blogs

After months of planning and saving we left Baltimore for Reagan National airport on our American Airlines flight bound for Mexico, DF to start our journey around the world.  Stay tuned in for many more entries and be sure to drop us a line to let us know your thoughts . . . God bless!!

We got up and had breakfast at Denny's.  Then I drove us into the city where we parked in a lot for $18.  We walked over to the Convention Center where my parents headed to the line for the ballroom, and I went to check in.  We had an hour wait before the graduates would begin headin…

Both Lena and I love American football, but neither one of us had ever been to a game before. I have been to a few college games, but that was many many years ago, and Lena, being from Sweden, had never been to any kind of game, other than when my son played when he was 16 years old. So, with our 1…

So, I had gone to the beer fest two years ago at Max's on Broadway in Baltimore.  It was good times - lots of beer and good bartenders, so I wanted to go again this year.  Once again, I had a great time.  They had 120 Beers on tap, with 180 more bottles.  We showed up at 7PM …

Well, I really can't write about all these other places in the world without promoting MY fine state can I? Baltimore: "Charm City' is a secret gem of a place to visit, and to live. It was crap in the 1970's, but has risen above to become a great destination. Since I fly, I'll show you much of the state from the air AND the ground. Enjoy. Travelogue in-progess.

This was the hardest trip ever to put together.   Every time I want to go to Baltimore there is either bad weather or no seats available to fly there.   I have been wanting to go to Baltimore for awhile, but when my airline announced they were not going to be flying to Balt…

I had the address for Charm City Cakes and wanted to at least do a drive by and get a picture of the outside since I know you can't go in.  For those not in the know...Charm City Cakes is owned by Duff Goldman who has a show, Ace of Cakes, on Food Network.  I was a big fan of Duff pr…

Empowered by a smiley face, we blog on... What do Cab Calloway, a numberless clock face and Edgar Allen Poe all have in common?  You guessed it...Baltimore.  A quick one hour tour on an amphibious vehicle took us through several Baltimore areas of interest and provided a wealth of Baltim…

Baltimore... what a frustrating trip! A friend told me before I went that I would go, and then I'd be mad at myself, because I didn't have enough time to do everything. And that's pretty much exactly what happened. I'm disappointed that my airline will stop flying there next week, because it is alm…

So not only did we leave late but Brandon and I stopped off at Eat 'n Park... a family restaurant in Pennsylvania to get my sister, my friends in New York and my friends in Orlando some cookies that aren't too good -they're like a short bread sugar cookie (neither of which I like)- but they like th…

It’s been three weeks now since I first started my Every Town on Earth Tour.  So far it’s still been pretty slow going—mainly just occasional one day and afternoon trips.  I feel OK about that—it’s best start out a bit slow until I get a system going and figure out how this is g…

Finally, it was time to go home.  It had been a good trip, and it had been great to see so many friends and family members; but I was ready for my own bed and my own house.  I flew out of BWI, and headed back to Phoenix.

There isn't much we do in Baltimore city. When we do things it, it is usually on vacation, or when we go to New York. We may do an ocassional thing locally, but it is not often we travel to Baltimore City. Yet, we often find ourselves in Baltimore City when they have the Artscape festival. We …

I made my third and final attempt to use a buddy pass my friend Michael gave me back in June. Previous attempts to get to Boston and Jacksonville were thwarted in July, so I decided to try one last time before 2007 and my buddy pass expired. Becky recently moved to Baltimore to teach at an inner-ci…

The flight arrived at BWI on time, even with the crappy weather, and we were soon off the plane and down at the luggage carousal waiting for our luggage to be unloaded. Once we had all three pieces of luggage, we went outside and waited for my mom & step dad to pick us up. We’ve been on t…
