๐ผ Feeling the Vibe in Baltimore | A Breath of Fresh Energy ๐
Escaped NYC for the 4th of July and headed to Baltimore for a relaxing getaway! Hereโs how my little road trip went: Day 1 ๐ Left in the morning, arrived in the afternoon. ๐ Watched the Independence Day fireworks from Federal Hill โ such a vibe with the whole Inner Harbor view! Day 2 ๐ก Explored the cute town of Frederick โ wandered through small shops and a lavender field ๐๐. Visited a local winery/distillery (though the lavender gin and popcorn bourbon werenโt my fave ๐ , the tour wouldโve been fun!). ๐ถ Stopped by the Peabody Institute in the evening โ gorgeous architecture and live music! Day 3 ๐ผ๏ธ Checked out the Walters Art Museum (so beautiful + itโs right next to the Washington Monument!). โด๏ธ Strolled by the harbor and visited Fort McHenry โ where the Star-Spangled Banner was born! ๐บ๐ธ ๐ณ Brunch at Blue Moon Cafe: My omelette was just okay ๐ฅ, but the fruit was sweet ๐! My friendโs crab Benedict was delicious ๐ฆ Shoutout to our badass waitress โ her energy literally made my day! Tipped 30% with joy ๐ Other Highlights: Climbed the Washington Monumentโs spiral staircase (277 steps! ๐งโโ๏ธ). View was meh, but the climb felt rewarding. Rainpiaโs spicy pig trotters โ SO SPICY BUT SO ADDICTIVE! ๐ถ๏ธ๐ฅ Johns Hopkins Hospital looks like a castle ๐ฅ๐ฐ โ so majestic! Overall, Baltimore gave me the perfect mix of city energy and small-town chill. It was refreshing, unpretentious, and full of pleasant surprises! Wishing you all joyful and safe travels too ๐ซโจ #ENFJ #GoodVibes #BaltimoreDiaries #TravelLight #SummerTrip #ArtAndSoul #HistoricVibes
