We lived for a while just outside of Balitmore, Maryland and visited the Inner Harbor on many occasions. It was a fun place to go and just hang out on a Sunday afternoon to listen to musicians there or to go visit the Baltimore Aquarium. Camden Park is near the harbor and we have watched the Orioles play baseball there. Baltimore in 1816 was the first city in the US to light its streets with gas laterns. The first gas light still stands in the city today. We took a tour of the city one time and I picked up that tidbit of info then. We’ve also taken the water taxi’s from the harbor over to Fort McHenry. Francis Scott Key was inspired to write the Star Spangled Banner while looking at a flag flying over the fort. And Edgar Allen Poe is buried in Baltimore. I tried to snap a picture of his grave while on the tour but as you can see it is not the best shot.
