We loved it. Went to the Orioles game on Thursday night, checked Camden Yards off the stadium bucket list (wasn't great that they clinched that night). Friday we did the Naval Academy walking tour, which was excellent. Saw the noon meal formation as well as the formal parade that afternoon. I think you may have indicated what an emotional experience it is to see and hear about all of the formalities, traditions, etc., and that was dead on. I can't imagine the pride that these Midshipmen's parents and families must feel. We stayed at the Hilton Garden Inn, which was perfect for walking both to downtown/Academy, as well as back up toward the stadium. We frequented quite a few bars/restaurants downtown, and all were very good with friendly service. Weather was awesome and a nice relief from all the heat back home. This was top 2 or 3 (or better) away game experiences that I've had. Hope to go back next time around and bring the rest of the family when the kids are a bit older.
