Day Trip to Annapolis

One of our goals while we are in the DC area is to take TONS of day trips and weekend trips.  We aren't sure yet what our longterm plans are: stay in DC/Nova forever or just for a few years, but we do know that we want to take advantage of our time in this part of the country and see as much as we can.

We started with a little day trip to annapolis because it was less than an hour away and I fell in love with this cute little harbor town!!!  Charming streets, cute little stores (including a LILLY store!) and a beautiful harbor!

  We also saw the state house - where the original US Congress met an the legislative branch of the Maryland Government still meets.

We also toured the Naval Academy.  There was a wedding in the chapel so we could not see the inside of it, but we plan to take an official tour of the campus when we go back.

Annapolis was truly a charming little town.  I think Dave wanted to visit Annapolis more than I did, but I fell in love with this town the most (I made him promise me three times that we would make a return trip one weekend!) I LOVED the walkable streets, little restaurants and ice cream shops, cute stores, boats, etc.  I can't wait to return.  We had intended on staying for dinner and eat famous maryland crabs, but we had walked for several hours and it was going to rain, so we decided to head home and eat dinner in Courthouse.

I can't wait to take another trip to this charming little town!
