Weekend Cruise to Baltimore

Here are scenes from a recent weekend cruise. A crew sailed from Rock Creek to the Baltimore Inner Harbor. Andy Gross, the activity organizer, chose the Inner Harbor because the Whitbread around the world Race sailboats were visiting. We also discovered that a tall ship from Ecudor was visiting. Enjoy a few photos of our trip to Baltimore's Inner Harbor, 24-26 April 98.
