While checking off one of my big summer 2014 travel goals in Washington D.C. , I took a commuter train over to Baltimore for the day. Reason for the day trip: my sister got tickets to the Orioles/Rangers game that evening at Orioles Park at Camden Yards.

I love going to baseball games and would have gone even if the Rangers weren’t playing, but I enjoyed seeing my home team and cheering alongside an entire family of fellow Texas fans in nearby seats. It was fun to see a new ballpark and learn about the traditions and history of Camden Yards. Not to mention, I was accompanied by someone who took a cross country road trip to go to every Major League Baseball stadium in the country. She knows her stuff and was kind enough to take pictures of me all over Baltimore (hence why I am in most of these photos).

Have you ever been to Baltimore? What are your favorite things to do there?
