More Baltimore Inner Harbor

I've got so much to post. The orioles returned to the lake 2 days ago, so I want to post bird pics. And I went out to the cat sanctuary in Gettysburg yesterday, so I've got more cats to post. And tons of flora and fauna from around the lake. But first, for the city-philes and ship lovers on my flist, more Baltimore Inner Harbor pics from last month:

DSCN1088
The Baltimore Aquarium with dragon paddle boats in the foreground. I love that Baltimore has these dragon paddle boats, purple and green no less. And we're showing a bit of Legg-Mason Building behind the aquarium.




DSCN1090
The Pratt Street Pavilion on the harbor with the TransAm Building behind it.


DSCN1104
Biblio Pilgrims approaching a Shrine with reverence.

To the right of the pilgrims is the aquarium and said ship.

Might that be a schooner, mateys, or some other kind of sailing vessel?


DSCN1120
De udder side of de aquarium!

Bridge on the udder side of the aquarium with the Examiner Building beyond it.

Such wonderful pictures. I'm surprised by this batch of photos how much Baltimore reminds me of Cleveland, OH. I love the dragon fleet and the pictures of the ships in this post especially.

Yes, I think that's a schooner in Ameri-speak. :-)

Seeing swan pedalos on the River Avon always makes me laugh. Alas, I've never met Galadriel. ;-)

What a delightful area. Especially the dragon boats! That Barnes and Noble looks all kinds of awesome as well.

We could storm the paddle boats and reenact a bit of Elvish history. Ty!

I think Laketown in Middle-earth should have a fleet of dragon boats for the children. :)
