A Great Day in Solomons, Maryland

Solomons Island is everything we expected a town along the Chesapeake Bay to be... it's a perfect example of a quaint, picturesque, easily accessible boater's town.

Today we visited the Calvert Marine Museum and had the good fortune to stop by on a free day. The kids got to see otters and rays, dig for shark teeth, tour a Chesapeake Bay-style light house, and visit a NOAA hydrographing boat that happened to be visiting the museum dock.

Drew and Dad rented Segways for a ride around town and discovered a great seafood market where we'll hopefully be purchasing a big bunch of fresh crabs tomorrow. Here are some photos of our trip from Kent Narrows to Solomons Island, along with our museum field trip (click here).
