Breakfast with Pam,& Pam
Rich & Tom
Friday morning we were joined by Bob, Pam, Rich and Pam for breakfast at Chick & Ruth’s Delly. This is an Annapolis landmark where the walls are plastered with pictures of famous people and politicians. Every morning at 8:30, they play our national anthem and everyone stands and sings.
On our way out of the city docks we stopped at the marina next door and filled with diesel which was $3.07 including tax; lowered from $3.24. It was a calm day traveling on the Chesapeake and then heading up the Patapsco River to Maryland Yacht Club in Pasadena, MD. The Waterway Guide shows this as a private club but they do allow boaters on the Loop to stay for $1.00 a foot. We joined Bob and Pam from “Mint Julep” and Greg & Barb Franklin off”GonCruzn III” for dinner at the picnic table. Perfect weather and fun conversation.
Greg offered Bob and Pam a ride to the Baltimore airport for their 8:30 flight on Sat morning. We tagged along for the 35 minute ride and picked up an Avis car rental. We plugged in our GPS and drove downtown to the Baltimore Inner Harbor where there are numerous attractions to choose from. We went through the excellent National Aquarium, had an outdoor lunch at one of our favorites “PF Chang” and then caught the water taxi around the harbor. We walked the cobbled streets of Fell’s Point which has a history as a major shipbuilder back in the 17 and 1800. It has a blend of stores, pubs, restaurants and homes. The clothing boutiques had some funky clothes that I’m not sure the Quad City is ready for so I didn’t purchase any. We worked up an appetite doing all that walking so we decided to drive the few blocks to Little Italy. There are so many restaurants to choose from that we had a difficult time but decided on “Amiccis” and we have no complaints about the food or ambiance.
Since we had a vehicle we stopped at Safeway on our way back to the boat. Noah Genda was parked at the very far end of the pier so fortunately Tom found a cart to transport our many sacks.
