Historic Annapolis
Monday, May 24, 2010 
On my recent 6-week road trip, I visited the historic district of Annapolis for the first time. Known as America's Sailing Capital, this charming historic city is nestled along the bay. Annapolis is the capital of the state of Maryland (and named after Queen Anne) and was established by the Puritans as a seaport over three hundred years ago.
During my visit, I strolled the cobblestone streets and explored the beautiful United States Naval Academy before I met up with one of my friends for Maryland crab dip and draft beer at an outdoor bar and grill.
The United States Naval Academy – founded in 1845 – has truly a spectacular campus. Below, images I captured during my walk throughout the grounds.
