July 31, 2014 Baltimore's Inner Harbor

Yesterday, our first full day in Baltimore, was spent washing the outside of the boat. Not a fun day but the boat really needed it. So today we rented a car for a few days. We drove around the city to get the lay of the land and then parked at the Inner Harbor, $21 for three hours, to visit the sites. We walked around and went on board the historic ship USS Constellation. The Constellation was built in Norfolk and launched in 1854 as a sloop-of-war. It served the US Navy from 1854 to 1933 and then again from 1940 to 1955. Baltimore is home to several other historic ships.
