January GTG in Baltimore: thoughts:

Hey all! our plans are coming together for our trip to Baltimore, and I wanted to see if folks still were up for getting together.

We'll be getting in on Wed. Jan. 25 late, and have an all-day workshop Thurs Jan. 26.

Looks like Friday afternoon/late afternoon would work for us, or Saturday afternoon might work if Friday doesn't.

Local folks: Where should we meet? Is there a fun kid place? We're staying at the Homewood Suites on South President St (inner harbor?) in downtown. It says there's an aquarium nearby? Or a Children's Museum (my kids are free since they're under two, but I dont know if its any good)?

 If you are going to be around, let me know your thoughts on when and where- Yay!

  • There is a Children's Museum (Port Discovery) which is really great for kids, but a horrible place to socialize. And honestly, it is the only place I refuse to take them by myself since there is a huge climbing structure in the center where the kids can exit on any level.

    My suggestion would be the Maryland Science Center at Inner Harbor. They have a Kid Zone, which is a large closed off area (so no chasing kids) for kids 8 and under. there is a submarine, a boat to climb on, a water table/pipeline thing, Duplos, pneumatic tube system, etc. My kids loved it at 2y and still love it at 5y. Plus, becuase it is a contained space, it is condusive to everyone chatting and simultaneously keeping an eye on their kids!

    Kids under 3y are free and adults are $15.

    There are several restaurants in the area which are kid-friendly.

    I can't really do Fridays since I am coming from DC (work.) But Saturday should be fine (anytime after 10:30am since they have swimming lessons in the AM.) YAY!

  • I hope this can work out I would really like to meet some of you folks in the real world.  Saturdays are usually good for me depending on our crazy baby mking appointments.

    We had three BFN in the Fall of 2011. It is back on to some baby making come June. Swim little fellas, SWIM!!!!
  • I'll be in D.C. that weekend and would love to be able to join in, depending on transportation options from D.C. to the location.
