We left home today. I left my home in New City, NY, and picked up Amanda at her family's home in Pearl River, NY. We left her house at 10:30 AM and crossed into NJ at 10:31 AM. (Amanda lives right near the state line.) We stopped for lunch at the Richard Stockton Rest Area on the New Jersey Turnpike and crossed the Delaware Memorial Bridge into Delaware at 1:24 PM and crossed into Maryland at 1:44 PM. We arrived in Baltimore at 2:42 PM. We visited the National Aquarium on the Inner Harbor and stayed there the rest of the afternoon. The Aquarium was very impressive. I especially loved the rainforest exhibit. We had dinner at Harbor Place and went to the Top of the Baltimore World Trade Center. We spent the night at the Quality Inn Baltimore on Bloomfield Avenue. The hotel was ok, even though not in the nicest area.
