One thing I want to add to the East Coast trip is from the Philly trip. I did mention something creepy happened, but I never explained it. So here's what happened:
Me and Chokee were heading back to our car from Reading Terminal market. We had to head through a tunnel to head back, but it wasn't like a scary tunnel. The tunnel actually connected to a convention center. What creeped us out was when we were walking some guy approached us holding a large garbage bag and asked "Hey, do you guys know where I can dump a dead body" We just kept walking, a little bit faster at this point, and the guy goes "I gotta dump this body, it's my girlfriend" or something like that. So at that point we just walked faster without looing back and tried to get to the car as fast as possible. We drove back through the tunnel to head back to the freeway and I saw the guy talking to whoever was working in the garage/loading area in the tunnel.
What a freaking creep man!!!!!!!

Day 3 (day 2-3) - Baltimore and Philly
Date: August 19, 2010 (Thursday)
Time: 12:25 AM
Still awake.. Can't sleep, so I'll update what I've been up to.
So our flight Monday had 2 stops. A plane change at Denver and a stop in Kansas City. not too exciting, but the flight felt like forever.
Once landing, Immediately felt the humidity hit. It felt disgusting outside.
After eating dinner here at the house, had a walk around the mall here: Arundel Mills. It's so damn huge! One story, lots of walking.. just like Great Mall.
Yesterday just spent the day in Baltimore. Took the light rail to Camden Yards and headed straight to Inner Harbor. Got to see the boats/Marina, lots of shopping/food places and just the tourist spots. At 12, got scared because the Navy ship shot a canon and had no idea it was coming! Haha! Got a bit dehydrated since it got hot around noon. Stopped into the Barnes & Nobles to rest and cool off then headed back out to Lexington Market for lunch. This place has a whole bunch of restaurants and produce to buy. My lunch was subpar: California rolls and a miso soup with an ice tea. The ice tea was so sweet that it just tasted like sago juice.
After Lexington went to visit Edgar Allan Poe's grave. Was a bit taken aback because I didn't know it really was a buriel ground. After went straight to Camden Yards. bought $9 tickets for upper reserve then chilled in the Sports Hall of Fame lobby until gates opened.
@5, headed in. Camden Field is so pretty! Very old fashioned, went down during BP to try to get Mariners' Autographs. Balls weren't coming our way so I put on my Mariner's shirt and called out to Jason Vargas for a ball. He tossed it over, but a kid intercepted and knocked it back into the field. Jason was like "what? that's not for you. It's for the girl. Can't you see she's wearing the blue!" He tossed it back to me. Haha. I was so excited. Very content!
Watched a bit of the game and left at mid 8th when the score was 1-0 Mariners. One the way home, heard the score ended 4-0 Mariners!
Went to sleep at 1 or 2 and woke up early for Wednesday's adventures in Philadelphia.
Chokee and I left at 8 AM and headed to Philly. Came across 3 toll plazas $2 in Baltimore for the tunnel, $5 for turnpike in Delaware and $4 for turnpike in Philly! Hella Expensive!!
Accidentally put in the wrong address and ended up at the planned last stop first. Redirected the GPS to the Eastern State Penitentiary. Took pictures outside then left to the Museum of Art, AKA, The Rocky Steps!
Took a run up the stairs then headed to Independence Hall, Liberty Bell Center and the Visitors Center.
Got to see the Liberty Bell and it's history, and the Visitors center. After went to get lunch at Pat's King of Steaks! So good! Hella anticipated it. It was huge and their fries were good. I was scared to order, but it went smoothly. After headed to LOVE Park and saw the infamous L-O-V-E sign. Smaller than I expected. And I had no idea it was next to a fountain.
Went to Reading Terminal Market. Found the Man v. Food restaurant he stopped at, then looked around. Looks like Lexington Market. Got creeped out on the way back to the car, but I'll explain that later. It's late and I needa wake up early to go to DC tomorrow morning. I'll update again, maybe on the bus to NY.. who knows.
