Things to Do in Annapolis, MD
Naval Academy
A definite must do for any visit to Annapolis, MD. This is one squared away place. Every step of the way, you get the feeling that really great things happen here as a routine measure.
Maryland State House
One of the first Capitols of the USA! General George Washington resigned his commission here after defeating the English.
Quiet Waters Park
The park has lots of nice fountains, small pools (not for swimming), gazebos, walking bridges, and trails. I particularly enjoyed the butterfly garden with a cute little birdhouse library. If you go further back, you'll reach the South River and will see lots of people on boats.
Ego Alley
After, sit by the water at sunset, watch the boats come in and out and really appreciate the nautical lifestyle.

FYI Tastings are by reservation only, but they welcome walk-ins to by a bottle and have a picnic!
Chick & Ruth's Delly
There is more than one reason why Chick and Ruth’s Delly is the place to be for breakfast in Annapolis. First, of course, is the amazing food, including our favorite “world famous” seasoned crab and cheese omelet. Second is the morning ritual. Every weekday at 8:30am and weekend at 9:30am, the staff of Chick and Ruth’s assembles for the daily Pledge of Allegiance. Everything and everyone stops for a few brief seconds to salute the flag. It’s so unusual, you almost have to see it to believe it. And, depending on the time of year, you may just find yourself standing next to a state legislator or the governor himself. He has his own booth, after all.
Iron Rooster - Annapolis
With views of Ego Alley, Iron Rooster is the spot for breakfast or brunch. Their homemade pop tarts and eggs benedict are outstanding.
