A Basic Best Guide Traveling in America

A Basic Best Guide Travelling In America

In today’s economic climate, it appears more financially rational, and sometimes even more fun, to explore the world’s lesser-known sites. I tested this out this summer when I headed to America for some much-needed sun. As we had already visited New York last year. There were few other places we wished to see in the east of the country, other than America’s beautiful capital, Washington D.C. I Hope You Will Understand A Basic Best Guide for Travelling in America

But, as you can imagine, Washington (the city, not the state, which is in fact on the west coast of the country) is a busy, bustling tourist destination. Eager tourists and gaggling groups of American children on school or church trips always pack the city. Which is home to some of America’s most famed attractions like the White House and the Lincoln Memorial. A way to escape the madness of the city during peak times – roughly from May through to September – is to either visit during less busy months of the year or to stay somewhere nearby. We tried the second option in late July and stayed in Annapolis, the capital of Maryland. Which is one of the states and include in Travelling in America.

Accommodation prices in Annapolis are very reasonable, thanks to its proximity to Washington. The local diner greets a British accent with glee and surprise—check out the “Double T Diner” for fluffy French toast. Unlike other destinations in America, such as Florida. The swimming pools are seldom seen here due to the riverside location of the town. It was nigh on impossible to find a holiday rental with a pool, so we settled for a gorgeous river house. Which had 3 decks and a pier leading right down to the waterfront. Swimming, fishing, kayaking, and canoeing are all popular activities to do whilst there – in addition, Annapolis is famous for its crabs. Either try fishing yourself, which is easy to do considering the sheer amount of riverfront homes and B&Bs, or sample the famous local crab cakes, known as “Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes”.

US Naval Academy’s Home Base Is In Annapolis:

The predominant reason this town is known nationally is due to its navy camp. Annapolis is home to the United States Naval Academy. This means that you will barely turn a street corner without a muscly naval officer jogging past or an SUV with an “I’m a Navy Mom” bumper sticker slapped on the back! Another place you can spot people from the academy is along one of the area’s most interesting attractions. A 13-mile cycling and jogging track that spans from Baltimore airport to an Annapolis bike store. Over an old railway line, a paved surface about 8 feet wide winds its way through lush wooded terrain and some picturesque suburban areas. It makes for a nice day out for families. Or just as a daily workout location for the locals and the training sailors.

Annapolis Seafood And Charm:

As I briefly mentioned earlier, Annapolis is famous for its crabs – not only that, but it’s delicious seafood. One place to visit is “Sam’s on the Waterfront ”, which offers the local favorite. The salmon burger, and refillable “mocktails” for the kids – the Shirley Temple is always a hit. Or after a day trip to Washington D.C., head only 5 miles south out of the city to the beautiful town of Alexandria. Where you can find the stylish restaurant, “The Fish Market”, which without a doubt offers the world’s best onion rings. With live music and “oyster nights” on individual select days of the week. Also, visit the quaint boutiques and Alexandria’s stunning riverfront. It’s not every day that you can find such an attractive place to visit only 5 miles from a country’s capital.
