What is the best thing to do in Baltimore while getting drunk?|161022

I will be there the end of this month for 3 nites and I need some suggestions.

Bar-hop the Inner Harbor...

I will not answer questions from this screen name or avatar.

The best thing to do if you are getting drunk, regardless of where you are, is not to drive and kill someone or yourself.

Hit on the bachelorette party girls in Canton, Fells Point or even Power Plant Live who are just as drunk as you are. Stay away from the sober ones until they become just as drunk as their other friends. Be careful you don_t wind up in Baltimore_s Central Booking - that would be the worst thing to do in Baltimore while getting drunk.

There_s a place I know of that a lot of people I know have went to while there --- It_s Looneys at 2900 O_Donnell St.

I think it has a restaurant/bar at the bottom and pool tables and stuff upstairs. I understand it_s a sports bar.

You are PLANNING on getting sick? Then my dad use to swear on Coke and Vodka.. the only thing that didn_t give him a hang over. Otherwise, just eat plenty and drink water for as much alc. that you have drunk and be safe and DON_T drive. I_d hate for my husband to splat you on his way home from work. No one needs to know that you are being responsible when you drink. Recommend going to the Rusty Scupper restaurant by the inner harbor. It was tasty.

Don_t drive!!!!!

Stay in your hotel room.

Jump into the harbor and swim over to Fort McHenry to look at the flag.

the best thing is to either get you someone to drive you around while you party or call a cab

Is St Michael Island in Maryland a great place for a short cruise visit?|105138

My friend and I are interested in taking a cruise from Annapolis to St Michael Island in late September. Since it costs $60/ each for cruise alone and one day, we want to be cautious before making up our mind to go. Has anyone with the experience before can share your thoughts with us? Thanks!

Jan, the answer to this lies in the type of things you enjoy doing.
St Michael Island is very relaxed, casual, charming and historic (as islands so often can be).
If you like a slow island-pace then you should love it there.

I think the price is reasonable, but remember there will be other expenses too.
The boutique winery on the island (located in a historic Mill) is lovely if you enjoy a drink.

There are many eateries.
Several are real gourmet restaurants, beautifully located on the water, _The Crab Claw_ is wonderful.

If you like all-things maritime - visit the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum or take the Lighthouse Tour.
If your freind is male - he should find it real interesting.

St Michael is a great way to spend a pleasant day with a friend.
Treat yourselves.

Thank you, I hope you enjoy the island.

What is the quickest way to drive from Buffalo to New York City?|192251

Driving from the Peace Bridge at about 7am on a Friday and looking for quickest route, Tolls are OK. Thanks in advance.

This should be pretty simple to follow, assuming you get to I-90 in Buffalo.. (*note, you may need to use I-190 there to get to I-90).. Both
I-90 and I-190 are part of the Thruway..(ALSO note I-90 is a toll road). Not sure where you were going in NYC, so I just did a global search for you.. In anycase once you Hit the Holland tunnel, you will basically be there.. NY state maps are available on the Thruway and on Route 81 at most rest areas.. At some of the rest areas on 81 you might also find a NYC map which will prove quite helpful. This trip should take about 7 hours. Also along the way once you hit 81, you should see signs directing you.

How long does it take to drive from the southern tip of Connecticut to Sacco, Maine?|170174

I_m writing a story and I can_t quite recall how long it took for me. I know from Washington State to Georgia could be DRIVEN in less than three days, so how long? Help would be great.

From New Haven, CT to Saco, ME is 226.7 miles. Mapquests estimates the drive will take 3 hours and 51 minutes.

How do I find a place to live in NYC several months in advance?|181146

I_m a soon-to-be college graduate looking to relocate to NYC in summer 2009. I wish I could have an idea now where I will be living and what I would be paying in rent, but of course apartments aren_t typically available that far in advance. Advice on how to plan/ how to deal with this uncertainty?

Just because you can_t sign a lease several months out, that doesn_t mean you can_t look at apartment listings in places like Craigslist and get a sense of what neighborhoods you prefer, how much you_ll have to spend / how much space you_ll get in your price range, etc.

My friend, may I recommend the links below.

Good luck

at this point you can pinpoint a neighborhood and get an idea of average rents for that neighborhood...but you cant actually secure an apt this far in advance...

What are some nice places to visit in Virginia to Pennsylvania area?|127858

I want to plan a trip for 2-3 days and i live in philly. So, preferably withing 4-5 hrs of driving distance of it. I like nature and water [beaches would be out of choice at this time though :( ]
Thanks in advance. -aaveg.

I don_t know about this time of the year, but Lancaster and Bird in Hand, Pennsylvania are really nice.I go down in August every year. I love it. I like to drive around and stop at all the little Amish farm stands to see what they have.
Or Washington, D.C., but not that much nature.
