Oct. 6, National Aquarium and Fells Point festival

The National Aquarium in Baltimore was a consistent source of wonder and amazement, from its tropical rain forest to its Animal Planet Australia exhibit.  Unfortunately, the dolphins were on strike.
We also visited the Top of the World Observation tower in the Baltimore World Trade Center and then off to Fells Point festival.  Another full day of touring.

 For lunch we visited Little Italy and went to Amaccis for a wonderful treat.

The Seven Foot Knoll Lighthouse is the oldest surviving screw-pile lighthouse on the
Chesapeake Bay.  It was constructed at the mouth of the Patapsco River in 1855 and marked the
shoal known as "Seven Foot Knoll" for 133 years.  Its beacon was first lit in January, 1856.
