Boats

On Monday Justin and I took all the boys down to the Inner Harbor in Baltimore to check out some old boats. When we got there we had a quick lunch and then toured one of the boats. The boys enjoyed going up and down the ladders the most I think. We got to see everything from where they slept, to where they kept their food, and even the boats jail. After the boat tour we went on a submarine tour. The boys really liked that it was painted as a shark. They also seemed to really get how small it was in there and how cramped it must have been for everyone. It was very hot and humid that day so we were all ready to go back to Oma and Opa's house after the submarine tour. We came home, had a little quiet time and then went out for dinner.



On Tuesday all of us went down to Annapolis where we took a 40 minute ferry ride. The boys had so much fun. Carter got to be the life vest demonstrator and they had a little wheel at the front of the boat where both boys got to "captain" the boat. Carter also hung out with the Captain some and saw how everything worked. Nolan mostly stayed downstairs in the air condition with Oma, as he refuses to wear his hat and I didn't want him sunburned. We had some ice cream before we headed back to Oma and Opa's.  It was a very fun day.
