The Tall Ships have arrived to Baltimore's Inner Harbor. The Star-Spangled Sailabration
is the start of the Bicentennial of the War of 1812 and the writing of
the Star-Spangled Banner. They arrived a few days ago but I haven't
been able to check them out until last night. On the website you can find out
when and where you can tour some of the Tall Ships and naval vessels that are
docked along the harbor. I walked along the harbor with couple friends
of mine and got a couple pictures of the ships.
(If you are playing scvngr and are at the harbor you can do the "Ships Ahoy!" challenge and earn points as part of the B'more Outdoors trek.)
These are some of the ships that I saw. They come from all over the world, each have various flags draped from the masts and if you come in the evening you can see them all lit up as you can see in the second picture. I thought it was funny that this one had a pirate flag, too. There are also the dragon boats you see in the picture that people can rent and get a closer look of the ships from the water.
The Tall Ships will only be in the Baltimore harbor until Tuesday June 19th when they will set sail to their next destination. The Parade of Sail will begin at 7 am when the navy vessels will depart, at 11am the Tall Ships will depart. The last of the ships are said to be out of the harbor by 1pm on June 19th. Don't miss your chance to see these magnificent ships. Meet Me Outdoors
