Annapolis
Maryland’s Capital City
Annapolis is Maryland’s capital city and is steeped in history. Some refer to it as a ‘museum without walls’. It is a lively, upbeat, contemporary city where four centuries of architecture embrace 21st-century living. Its downtown is adjacent to the harbor. All roads seem to lead to the water. There is a clear connection to the water and nautical heritage.

Annapolis – Ego Alley
Ego Alley is not an alley in the traditional sense of the word. It is not a walkway. It is a narrow waterway that spills out into Spa Creek.

It makes for an interesting place to meander.
