National Aquarium
A small sampling of the eye-popping wonders at Baltimore's National Aquarium: Tropical fish, coral, and sea anenomes. Suggestion: Arrive early in the morning to make sure you get tickets to see the dolphin show. (from video)
Besides the dolphins, sea turtles, rays, and (one) crocodile, many turtles, fish, and sharks are on display, but most of them are in dim light not suitable for photographs. (from video)
Oriole Park at Camden Yards
The main entry to Camden Yards, on the southwest.

Eager baseball fans, many of whom traveled from New York to see the Yankees, head toward the southeast entrance. On the right are the Bromoseltzer clock tower and the B&O warehouse.
A larger version of this dedication plaque once adorned the south side of Memorial Stadium.
"The citizens of the state of Maryland dedicate this memorial to all veterans who so valiantly fought and served in our nation's wars with eternal gratitude to those who made the supreme sacrifice to preserve democracy and freedom throughout the world."
