I think this is one of the best parts of being in the military and moving around as much as we do is the people we meet. We are always reuniting with old friends, meeting new friends, and meeting friends of friends.
The location that we are currently living in seems to be a popular area and many familiar families and old friends from previous duty stations are within an hour or two.
Last week I met up with some old friends who lived in Japan when we did. We had babies together in the same Japanese hospital and sent them to the same Japanese pre school. Now we are living about 2 hours apart, so it has been fun to reunite (after not seeing each other for over three years!)
We met in Baltimore, which is about a 1.5 hour drive for both of us, maybe a bit shorter for her.
We started our day at the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra at a Family Concert.
Then we went to the Port Discovery Children's Museum for 4 hours! It was great fun for all of us.
I got a bit lost on the way home...but at least we made it home safely.
Getting to Baltimore is a bit harder for me to navigate than getting to DC and it is a lot more expensive, but I still like Baltimore and look forward to exploring it more while we live so close to it.
Does anyone have any ideas or recommendations of things to do? I think we plan to hit the science museum and the aquarium next, but besides that I am open to new ideas.
