Sunday, July 6th - Saturday, July 12th 2008

Baltimore, one of America's big cities, is a place that many visit to explore our country's history, and to taste the rich culture of blue collar America. The National Aquarium, the Inner Harbor, many fine museums and the great war ship, the USS Constellation, stand out among many popular sites. Virtually in the shadow of this grand travelers' paradise is a completely different environment. Baltimore, over the last several years is a city that has struggled with many social problems.
