We came to Baltimore last Sunday from Bodkin Creek, which is just 15 miles away. Our friends Lynn and Wayne had made arrangement for us to tie up at Ann Street dock at Fells Point. It's a very convenient spot to be, bakery, restaurants, pubs and bars all within a stone's throw away. Wayne is one of the Captains on the Urban Pirate ship "Fearless", he's known as Captain Bones. We had the good fortune to be onboard the pirate ship for a day trip and an evening trip this past week, and it was great fun; with water cannons, music, acting like a pirate and the moving scenery of the Baltimore harbor.

There's so much to do in Baltimore, from museums, book stores, shops, night life and music. Just sitting on the boat and watching the street scene is entertaining to us. There's dog walkers, serious runners, people walking to work, people walking by to go onboard the pirateship, tourists, and party goers. And many stop by wanted to know about Pooh, so in a small way we are becoming one of the attractions. After a week, we have a favorite restaurant to hang out, a favorite pub for music, etc. and while Mark is busy rewiring the pirate ship, I have covered many corners of city blocks and getting to know my way around.
Nice way to see the harbor; submarine Torsk and the Aquarium
