So I made it to Baltimore on time this morning after being woken up at 6am by Clarissa after I slept through all 3 of my alarms set for 5am!! My crazy phone doesn't have a sleep button, so when I silence it...THATS IT! I left my little alarm clock at home...bad decision. So I was unshowered and with no make up, but I made it none the less in one piece and on time, phew! My bag grew a few inches and all I added was a Harvard tshirt...I just don't understand how that happens...I had some difficulty in the overhead compartment, but with a few good shoves...anything will fit, right??
Anyway, I had a WONDERFUL time in Boston with perfect hosts and I'm now on to Baltimore where my freshman college roomie Charity picked me up from the airport! She drove me around the city a bit. She lives right on the water, part of the Chesapeake Bay. It is such a cute area and a block away from a cute square type area with coffee shops, bars, and restaurants...it's called Canton. Then right down the road is another little community called Fells and it's real neat all by the water. As you go further inland she says it gets a lot rougher...REAL QUICK. Johns Hopkins is just a few minutes away so I got a tour of the graduate campus/hospital. It's very convenient to Charity's apartment which makes it a nice short commute for school and work in the ER. I'm sure glad someone can do that job...most of you probably know my fondness of hospitals...it was beautiful to drive by it and observe from the outside...but that's close enough for me!
Today was very chilly, actually it was very windy...it wouldn't have been too bad without the wind, but tomorrow it is supposed to be really pretty so we're going to do some walking around the city and to Federal Hill. I love all the explorations.
Tonight I'm getting some laundry done, a good shower, and a good nights sleep! I'll check in later!
Take care!
You are my idol. I love that you are just a traveling fool. Have a great time. We miss you and can't wait for you to get here! Joyce
