- National Aquarium I will say it is a generally nice aquarium.... I like the way it arranges the displays in a cunny way. However, it is not really a "fish" oriented acqurium. A huge portion of collections are reptiles and amphibians - Frog, for example. Also, it is very "educational" oriented. My friends are joking that this is a aquarium that photos are more than live stocks. The dorphin shows spent more than talking about dorphin rather than showing stuffs (There is nothing wrong with it, if from education purpose, just different type of show) Comparing with the acquariums in this region (actually, we only went one at VA beach, there are not many out here), it is quite good. But take it against Georgia Aquarium, this is really totally different scale, quite different purpose, and significant different atmosphere.
- Crab Cake at Faidley At lexington market... I was sort of impressed and scared by lexington market upon the time walking in. Partly because it was playing loud live rock music at that time. Overall, very old style traditional market place. Crowded, lousy, and some odd smell in the air but open and vivid atmosphere. The crab cake is incredible good (and costly). It was quite fun to eat something in US at standing bar (I missed the tachi soba and yakidori in Japan)
- fort McHenry
The originate place of american national anthem. If you are not an american citizen, you probably won't care this much. It has some history, but we all know, American has a very short and straightforward history. But it is a nice ocean front park, very nice for picnic....
