Flying High: The Quick and Easy Way
If you're the impatient type (or just really hate driving), flying is probably your best bet. Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI) is your main hub. It's conveniently located, so you can be slurping down crab soup in no time. Just make sure you don't accidentally end up in Washington D.C. – that's a whole different ballgame.
Tip: Don’t skip the small notes — they often matter.
Hitting the Road: The Adventurous Option
Love the open road? Cool! Baltimore is a road trip dream. Whether you're cruising down I-95, I-83, or any of the other major highways, you'll be surrounded by stunning scenery (okay, maybe not stunning, but definitely scenic). Just remember, traffic can be a real buzzkill, especially during rush hour. So, maybe avoid those times if you can.
QuickTip: Break reading into digestible chunks.
Pro Tip: If you're into road trips, consider stopping at some of the charming small towns along the way. You might stumble upon a hidden gem!
Tip: Reread key phrases to strengthen memory.
Train Tracks and City Stacks: The Romantic (or Not) Option
For those who prefer a slower pace (or just love the idea of a train adventure), Amtrak offers service to Baltimore's Penn Station. It's a great way to relax and enjoy the scenery, but be prepared for potential delays. And if you're expecting a European-style train experience, you might be disappointed. But hey, at least you're not stuck in traffic!
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.
