Baltimore, a turtle, some fish.....and Tara too!

Well I need to go back a few days…well actually just over a week, to my day trip to Baltimore to see the aquarium. This was not my first visit to Baltimore as a couple days earlier I did take a quick drive through the city. (Well actually what happened was that as I was driving home from the airport after my trip to Chicago I missed my exit and ended up driving through Baltimore at 1 am instead of driving around it. It really is a pretty city. I hope to visit again in the spring when the wind off the water is not so cold).


Baltimore's Inner Harbour


Anyway, the aquarium was our stop (and when I mean “our”, I mean Tara and I). The drive was perfectly uneventful and Tara knew exactly where to park so it was great. The aquarium itself has everything it should (except whales…its needs a couple whales). We saw lots of fish, a few sharks, a cute dolphin show and more turtles than you could imagine. We also saw more snakes than Tara and I would have liked (neither of us are fans…especially the big ones…and the small ones…and the green ones…well you get the point. I took no pictures of them because I would have stood around and looked at them long enough to take the picture).

Here are few pictures from the day.
