Sailors ahoy! |
801 Lancaster Street Inner Harbor East Baltimore, MD 21202 United States +1 410 837 9100 http://www.baltimorecharters.com/ info@baltimorecharters.com |
If you are in the mood for some adventure, then book a cruise on the 75 foot Royal Blue yacht. Host your engagement party or your wedding reception here - the Baltimore Yacht Charters (the agents for the Royal Blue) have special provisions for that. If you just want to chill out with your friends or business partners, you will find a variety of plans to suit your budget. Arranging for a cruise on a Friday, Saturday or a holiday is more expensive. Dockside rates are comparably cheaper. The agents will provide for the beverages and the food. So sit back, let your hair loose, and enjoy the view of the city from the sea. Review © 2007, Wcities |

A trip down history lanes |
800 East Lombard Street Baltimore, MD 21202 United States +1 410 605 2964 http://www.carrollmuseums.org/... |
The Carroll Mansion is worth a visit, if you're fascinated with history. The mansion was home to Richard Caton, whose father-in-law was Charles Carroll, one of the signatories of the American Declaration of Independence. After his death, the mansion went through a series of contrasting events - from days of splendor to days of poverty. Step in to see traces of both the culturally rich days of the 18th century and its gradual decline in the 19th century. Today the mansion hosts corporate and private events, and is also available for tours. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Eating Out In The Sea |
561 Light Street next to the Maryland Science Center Baltimore, MD 21202 United States +1 410 727 3113 / +1 800 695 2628 http://www.harborcruises.com/ melinda@harborcruises.com |
Eating on the move acquires a different meaning when you board any of the yachts of the Harbor Cruises. Grab a few bites as Prince Charming, Bay Lady and Lady Baltimore welcome you aboard. The rates are reasonable, the food is splendid and you're encouraged to drink - after all that's a sea farer's prerogative! Special events are planned all throughout the year. For instance, you can charm your better half aboard the Bay Lady or the Lady Baltimore on a Valentine Dinner Cruise in February. You can simply walk in with a friend during the non-peak days. However, it is recommended that you book in advance if you're arriving with a large group during summer. You can do a group booking or a private charter booking, preferably reserving a few months in advance for special days. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Tribute to Nazi holocaust victims |
Corner of Gay, Lombard and Water streets Baltimore, MD 21202 United States +1 410 752 2630 |
The Holocaust Memorial in downtown Baltimore was originally built in 1980 and was refurbished in 1997. Today, the centerpiece of the stark gray memorial is two concrete monoliths that represent the boxcars used to transport Jews to the Nazi death camps during World War II. Railroad tracks surround the structure. The redesign which involved the removal of a grassy hill, gives passersby along the Inner Harbor a view of the memorial. Review © 2007, Wcities |
