Walk to Artscape (6 miles)

Today we set out at around 11 a.m. to walk to artscape (http://www.artscape.org/index.cfm?page=plan) which is America's largest free art festival held in dowtown Baltimore. We calculated our route using mapmywalk.com which told us it would take 5.26 miles to get there but we like to walk along the water which we figured rounded it off to an even 6 miles.

This walk was fairly uneventful. My mom did ask to use the chapstick in the satchel which is the first time we have used any of the utilities we have packed.

We were starving by the time we reached artscape but had heard that they had North Carolina BBQ and thankfully found the culinary van parked not too far from where we entered. We decided we would try their sweet tea and were dumb enough to think that we would share one. We ended up buying three of them. But these weren't your typical sized cups, they were actually the family-sized tubs that you get at your local deli that had been cut at the lid to insert a straw (please see picture below).

So after we were full of tea and BBQ we set out to see the sites. We walked around looking at the typical jewelry, pottery, screen t's and other stuff you see at these things and as we were checking out the car exibit we overheard someone announcing a show that would be starting soon. The announcer was also the star of the show. We sat ourselves down and enjoyed a hilarious demonstration of nothing...http://www.freshvariety.net/jb/index.html...I guess thats not fair but really the guy was just funny (please see picture below)

After watching the show we were pretty much done with this place, it was really hot and once my mom pointed out my sunburn I started feeling it. We called my dad to come pick us up (you didn't expect us to walk back, did you?).
