Good Morning, Baltimore

I just returned from a whirlwind trip to Baltimore, where I indulged in multiple crab cakes, an Orange Crush (a local drink), loads of seafood and some Derby pie (kind of like a massive chocolate chip cookie).  The weather was lovely and I couldn’t get enough of their cobblestone streets, preppy boutiques and salty air.  Don’t you just love when you’re pleasantly surprised by a city?

    I adore Baltimore. I was actually there this weekend for work as well. I was born there, and just kind of hung out there throughout a few years(while I dated an Oriole). I love it there. It’s very cute.

    Great pictures of Baltimore! I’ve never been, but my sister lives only a few minutes away. How humid was it there? I went to Orlando and it’s just killer. Everywhere on the east coast is so humid (and I’m so used the to SoCal dry heat). Glad you had a fabulous time!

    I recently visited Baltimore too and was likewise pleasantly surprised! Great people, good food and a very cute harbor district. I didn’t find those cute boutiques though… jealous!

    How good was that Orange Crush?! I hope you enjoyed your forray into East Coast culture! I’m a Delaware gal, work in Philly, weekend at the beach, and have (too much) family in Bmore. Take trips out here more often! You’d be surprised by how breezy life here is!
