So far I'm enjoying this trip.
We're 3 days in and we've walked a little over 10 miles so far. 6.15 miles yesterday alone.
We're staying at the Hilton (connected to the Marriott). I wish we were at the Marriott, though. That place is awesome. It has the feel and layout of a Vegas casino. And I love the look of the outside.
So far, we've only managed to eat at Flying Biscut, from the big list. Our biggest problem is that most places are just too far away, and we're determined to walk everywhere.
However, we went to this really awesome casual style restaurant thing. It's almost laid out like fast food, but the stuff is so much better than that.
Aviva or something. It's in the mall attached to the Marriott. The chef/owner, really takes pride in his restaurant, and the food shows it. Really really good.
As far as the Biscuit, we got there at around 10:30am on Sunday. We didn't actually get seated until 11:30. They served us our food around 12:00. It's slow, but it was decent. I won't say incredible, but it was good none the less.
I plan on making a trip to Bone Lick some time while we're here. Shoya is out because it's really far. Hell, here's a map that I made of the places you guys suggested.
The only location that I think is wrong is the Zoo. For some reason, it's listed as right next to the Aquarium, and that isn't correct.
As far as the Aquarium, we went there today. Yes, the Whale Shark tank was pretty awesome as was the 30 foot tall viewing wall. But the rest of the place kind of sucks. You can EASILY see the entire place in like 2-3 hours if you don't have a kid slowing you down.
Baltimore is a much nicer aquarium on all fronts. Multiple buildings, much cooler selections. I love that Baltimore is split between multiple buildings and has the upper Rain Forrest area. Sure, it may have less water volume on display, but it makes much better use of what it does have.
Ok, I'm done bitching. Looking forward to the rest of the trip, even if it means going out of my way to try some of these food locations.
