Annapolis Sailboat Show Day Three

Today was a rainy, cool day so we decided to tour historic Annapolis.  The Annapolis Naval Academy is within a few blocks of downtown Annapolis.  This weekend was not only the boat show, but also parents’ weekend and a Navy football game.  The Chapel is beautiful with blue stained glass windows that cannot be recreated.  In the basement of The Chapel is the Crypt of John Paul Jones.  There is also a very impressive U.S. Naval Academy Museum.  We finished our tour at the Maryland State House.  This was the first capital of the United States for 10 months in 1783-1784.  This is the oldest state house in America still in continuous legislative use.  We had to check out Davis’s Pub (visited by Food Network’s Diners, Drive Ins and Dives) for dinner.  They have the best bar food and the crab pretzel is awesome.
