Annapolis and the United States Naval Academy

We are learning that the schedule we have set for ourselves on this adventure is depriving us of enough time to really get the gist of these locations, to feel the vibe. Rolling into Annapolis we realized that we had overlooked reserving a place to sleep that night! We hurried to the visitors center and the wonderful attendant found us a room, right downtown, in a great hotel ( O'Callaghan), at a great price. Phew! We had time to join a walking tour around the Naval Academy. It's a very impressive place, and the young men and women studying there were equally impressive. Early morning right out the door and into the car to Williamsburg via the a Eastern Shore.






Tecumseh painted in the style of The Giving Tree to encourage passersby to donate to relief efforts in the Phillipines. The other side of the base had a text number for the Red Cross.



Part of our mission on this road trip is to get our bearings in preparation for our trip down the ICW next fall. Annapolis will definitely get more of our time then.
