Road Trip! New Englanders Head South!

We're off on an adventure bright and early tomorrow morning. It seems like forever ago that we purchased tickets to a couple of Boston Red Sox games versus the Balitmore Orioles, but the trip is finally here. In just a few hours, we're driving from our home north of Boston for a weekend trip to Baltimore.

We'll be staying just outside the city, and going to the games Friday night and Saturday, but my favorite part is that we'll get to see some of our favorite peeps on Saturday, Banzoomba and MsRubio! We can't wait!!! We'll try to post a little trip report when we return!

If you want a different dining experience in Baltimore, we really enjoyed "The Helmand." It's an Afghani restaurant run by the brother of the president of Afghanistan, whose name temporarily escapes me. Very good food, and the resemblance was remarkable.

It's about 7 blocks uphill from the harbor complex.
MWC is online now

We're back safe and sound! Exhausted! Had a blast! MsRubio and Banzoomba: thanks for sharing a wonderful meal with us and our families at Bo Brooks! Loved those amazing steamed crabs...yummmmmmy! Saw two great Sox games at beautiful Camden Yards. Will write a longer report when I have a little more time. Must sleep now.

Glad to hear you guys made it home safe and sound.

It was so great to see you two again...and having our "mini peep meet" with the kids worked out great...Mack and Chris sure hit it off...and Lord if Kelsey lived closer she would be hired as a babysitter for Marissa...she was wonderful with her.

I only wish our get together wasn't so short. But at least you got to see two good ballgames...that is for all the Boston fans it was good games....just sorry the weather wasn't good.

I still have to download the pics we took....will get that done soon and post them. And yes the crabs were very yummy for this early in the season....glad you enjoyed them....maybe next time we will get your kids to try them too.

Some pics from Eileen and Charlie's weekend in Baltimore.

Bo Brooks Restaurant...when you say crabs in Baltimore...everybody knows Bo knows crabs.


Our Feast



First crab...who let all these Boston fans in Bo's anyway?



Great meal with great friends...notice the pitcher of Clipper City Beer is half empty.:p ...and we got many refills.



Chris...Mack...Kelsy and Marissa...what is with boys and not wanting to smile for the camera?



And the weather was just as great as when we met them in Boston.

Well, you just saw the evidence of one of the true highlights of the weekend in Baltimore. That Saturday lunch of crabs was sooooooooooooo fun! Thanks Monica for posting those pics. Between getting Kelsey ready for Italy (leaving tomorrow) and just being plain exhausted from my new job, I've hardly had a chance to come to the forum, much less post. But I promise to get back here to post a little trip report over the weekend.

i heard that the red sox were just sold to a gentleman from the Philipine Islands. He is going to move them there and change the name from the Boston Red Sox to the "MANILLA FOLDERS"

Tell Kelsey I hope she has a wonderful trip...what an opportunity for her...she is gonna have the time of her life.

It was great to see you guys...and you never have to twist my arm to eat steamed crabs. ....we would love to do it again anytime you come to Baltimore.

Here is a cute pic of the girls being silly.



This is my favorite of the boys...if we lived closer they definately would be buddies.
