Earlier this summer season Thomas acquired an itch to do a household journey in a metropolis like he did a couple of instances when he was a younger lad, so he deliberate a getaway for us to Baltimore! 

I’ve fond reminiscences of downtown Baltimore with my grandfather. After we had been little, he used to take us as much as his workplace after which out to lunch on the harbor. 

After we arrived at our lodge (The Marriott, booked on factors in fact), we walked to the harbor in the direction of the aquarium. 

We handed by the 9/11 Memorial and plenty of pirate ships. 

The Nationwide Aquarium

Our first cease was the Nationwide Aquarium, which was sadly a ZOO inside (pun supposed). So many individuals had the identical concept that you may barely transfer! 

We nonetheless had a fairly good time assembly enormous fish. 

So crowded you may barely stroll!

My favourite exhibit was the jellyfish immersion! 

We additionally appreciated the 4D present with particular results. Though Birch cried laborious when water got here out of the display!

We had cafe meals for lunch which really exceeded expectations. That’s a blackened salmon BLT I cut up with T.

We walked again to our lodge, stopping in a sweet retailer for a sizzling second. I like Nerds and need this shirt!

AirTag Tip

A buddy of mine really helpful AirTags to place in your youngsters at massive locations like theme parks and baseball stadiums.

The youngsters hated the Cracker Jacks – eye roll. 

Mazen and I every had crab cake sandwiches for dinner. They had been made with lump crab meat and fairly good!

Getting To Mattress

After the sport ended (sadly the O’s didn’t win) we walked again to our lodge. Whereas the placement couldn’t have been extra excellent, the lodge was so extremely crowded that we didn’t have an amazing expertise. Our room wasn’t prepared till 5:30pm (whereas we had been on the sport) and there have been so many individuals within the foyer attempting to test in that I used to be so glad I had the Bonvoy app with a cellular key. Getting an elevator was even worse however we lastly acquired to our room. (We tried to take the steps however couldn’t and not using a bodily key!) 

Ultimately all of us showered and watched the Olympics in mattress! 

Good morning

I forgot how loud metropolis sleeping is! We awoke so much all night time to varied sirens, together with the lodge alarm clock that somebody set for 6am, however by some miracle all of us slept till 8! 

We shocked the boys with donuts for breakfast
