| Page Views: 4,266 Last Visit to Baltimore: - | Balt'mer: Home of Poe, the O's, and Baltoberfest by Rixie - last update: Sep 20, 2006 |
| Giant stained glass crab, BWI Airport |
I lived not far from Baltimore for nine years, so coming to Baltoberfest was a return to my roots. Balt'mer has undergone a transformation since those early, pre-Beltway days; formerly seedy areas have been cleaned up and remodeled. Today visitors to the city think, "How charming and historic!" instead of "Omigawd, I wonder if I can get back to the hotel without being mugged?" |
| The old and the new, near North Charles Street |
|  | A modern office building towers over traditional red brick Baltimore row houses. |
The demographics in Baltimore have changed over the years, and the population is not just black and white anymore. | | |

I've breezed through Bal'more several times. Enjoyed the restored center. Your hotel looks like a very good recommendation. | ellielou Thu Feb 7, 2008 21:12 UTC
while in Cambodia, I learned how to say diaper in Italian. It's pannolini. I'm getting a new bag made, and it'll be called the fellini pannolini! ;-) | sourbugger Fri Jan 26, 2007 16:31 UTC

It occurs to me that Baltoberfest could be even better than Oktoberfest because you could have it every month, not just in October! Good thinking .. :) |
