A Day in Annapolis

Annapolis, MD, October 22, 2009: We started with breakfast pretzel rolls at the Pennsylvania Dutch Farmers' Market and proceeded to the tourist sites. The first stop was the Maryland State House, overseen by U.S. revolutionary hero Baron de Kalb (left) and U.S. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney (right):

Those with photo IDs toured the U.S. Naval Academy while the cameraman stayed behind with those who travel without photo IDs:










We each ordered a crab cake sandwich for lunch at the Boatyard in Eastport:
