Land Ho! Navigating Your Way to Baltimore
Disclaimer: I'm a language model, not a sailor. So while I can't guarantee you won't end up in Bermuda, I can offer some solid advice on reaching Baltimore's watery wonderland.
By Land (For Those Who Prefer Solid Ground)
- Caravan to the Coast: If you're driving, rejoice! Baltimore is generally pretty easy to find. Just avoid the temptation to steer your car into the Chesapeake Bay. It's a common mistake.
- Train Tracks to the Terminal: Amtrak offers service to Baltimore. Perfect for those who enjoy the soothing rhythm of train wheels and the opportunity to people-watch without the awkwardness of eye contact.
- Bus Blues: Buses are an option, but be prepared for a longer journey. Unless you're into bus adventures, in which case, more power to you!
By Air (For the Fearless Flyers)
- Touchdown and Go: Baltimore-Washington International Airport (BWI) is your best bet. From there, you can rent a car, take a cab, or Uber your way to the port. Just remember, if you see a taxi driver with a parrot, it might be a pirate.
Once You're There: Don't Get Lost at Sea (On Land)
Once you've conquered the journey to Baltimore, finding the port is usually pretty straightforward. There are signs, people, and probably even a friendly seagull to guide you. But if you're feeling particularly adventurous, you could always ask a local crab fisherman. They know their way around the harbor.
Important Tip: Bring a map. Or at least a smartphone with GPS. Just in case the seagulls are having an off day.
