My flight left early on Sunday so I didn't have time to do anything before my arrival in Baltimore. I landed & went to the hotel but my room wasn't ready. So I changed into shorts & flip flops (perhaps a mistake.) and stored my luggage at the hotel.

View of the Harbor from the Visitors Center

I walked down to the Inner Harbor from my Harbor East hotel location. Such a gorgeous walk along the water. I found a place with crab cakes (naturally) and enjoyed some lunch while making plans for the World Cup game.

Next, I walked to Fells Point from the Harbor to meet up with an old former co-worker from Zimmerman. I got to Fells quite a while before she was ready to arrive so I walked around some more. I love this area. Cobblestone streets, shops, restaurants and festivals throughout AND right on the water.

Fells Point

I met up with my friend & one of her co-workers at Koopers. I had already eaten but looked like they serve a delicious brunch! (plus it was packed; always a good sign.)

I had forgotten the World Cup final game started at 3, not 4. So I had to rush out of there, head back to the hotel with hopes that I could shower because it was HOT walking all over town all afternoon. Unfortunately my room wasn't ready yet. So instead I hopped in a cab to go to Midtown BBQ in Mt Vernon in Baltimore to meet up with another fellow Agora employee who I've traveled with in Nicaragua & the most recent conference in Vegas.

I showed up & met some other fellow Agora employees. The bar was really into the game which always makes watching it more fun.  After the game, the group of us wandered to Brewer's Art Bar because I had never been & was told I needed to experience it. Since everything in Baltimore is in old buildings, it was in the basement of a brownstone... really neat.

After I caught a cab back to Harbor East & met up with the co-workers from my Florida office who I was staying at the hotel with and we hung out at the bar across the street from our hotel for a while.

The next morning I was awake at 3:30 and couldn't get back to sleep. I watched TV, started some work around 4;30 waiting for the sun to come up, then I hit the pavement & ran along the Harbor. Always one of my favorite runs. The next morning was another early one, even though we were up late with co-workers just talking & hanging out. Always nice to see people that you communicate with daily but are 1000 miles away.

The 2nd morning I ran the other way towards Fells Point though & did a quick loop.

I am proud of myself for managing to keep up with my quest even during my business trip. I'm off to Denver on Saturday. That's a tougher flight so we'll see how I hold up!

And just for fun, here are some pics of our offices in Baltimore, just because I think they're so unique & beautiful. They're also in old brownstones.
