There are so many things we want to do while living here in Maryland and one of them was visiting the inner harbor in Baltimore. The kids love taking boats rides.
The dragon paddle boats...mom and dad did all the work. It was the longest 30 minutes of my life. My legs hurt so bad afterwards plus with the heat and humidity. I was glad when it was over. After doing the paddle boats we had to go indoors to cool off. 
Life jackets are so attractive....
We took a water taxi from the inner harbor to Fort McHenry. About a 15 minute ride.
It was such a beautiful and clear day. So hot and humid. But at least we had a slight breeze at times which was nice to cool off.
WOW...look at those guns!
Brady and Alex in jail. So, I asked the kids to get inside this cage so I could take a picture until I shut the door, just a little to get the full affect and they both were freaking out. But you can't really tell in the picture. They look like they are enjoying it.
I wasn't really crazy about touring Fort McHenry at first but was pleasantly surprised. Before walking around we watched a 20 minute video about the history of Fort McHenry. It was very interesting. I was happy to have gone and toured this historical landmark.
