SITES CLOSE BY
You'll find interesting sights, wonderful Amish shopping,
and great food in Lancaster
and Hershey, Pennsylvania,
both of which are about 89 miles from Baltimore. If you are a
history buff, you won't want to miss the exceptional historical
sites in Gettysburg,
Pennsylvania (56 miles) and Washington,
D.C. (40 miles).
Just about 50 miles away is Frederick,
Maryland and the National Museum of Civil War Medicine, 48 E
Patrick St., 301-695-1864. As you tour this 3-story pre-Civil
War brick building you'll see some of Gordon Dammann's 3,000
object medical artifact collection, the unforgettable photos
that make up the Wall of Wounded, and four galleries divided
into "Recruiting-the Army Camp," "The Army Battle,"
"Caring for the Sick and Wounded," and "The Role
of the Home Front."
Though further away, a visit to Ocean City, 4001 Coastal Highway,
Ocean City, MD 21841, 800-626-2326, 410-289-2800, will give you
a chance to experience Maryland's eastern shore. Here you can
play at the two amusement parks, stroll the board walk, run along
ten miles of public beach, dine at great seafood buffets, and
try to catch one of the marlins or sharks just waiting to challenge
your skills. Also nearby is Assateague Island with its wild ponies,
blue crabs, good fishing, bird watching, more natural beaches,
and lots of mosquitoes.
