Day one: Arrived at LAX airport and waited around for what should have been 6 hours, turned into 7 hours as the domestic cabin crew decided to turn up an hour late.

Spent a couple hours in Baltimore walking through all the shops. Grabbed dinner and enjoyed listening to the water. Hard Rock Cafe and several other kinds of seafood, Italian, Irish and other kinds of restaurants are located all along the Harbor as well as several dozen shops of all kinds.

Constellation...the last all-sail ship built by the American Navy, before the Civil War! It makes me wonder if in olden times, for the very first zoos, my ancestors were brought over on sailing ships like this. Quite an overpowering and fascinating thought! Luckily it was a gorgeous day and I had so much fun! But let's get to the fun stuff...the pictures! Be sure to see all 6....and stay tuned for more adventures! ... read more
