Tourism Tuesday: Maryland Science Center
When touring Baltimore, the top recommendation for a place to visit is the Inner Harbor, specifically the Aquarium. Although there are numerous other interesting parts of Baltimore, the Inner Harbor does boast a few gems.

Praised by countless blogs and other city newspapers, the Blue Moon Cafe promises an amazing breakfast to get your day of exploration started. With a calm environment, friendly servers, and a great music selection, the Blue Moon Cafe makes sure you are enjoying yourself…before they stuff you with the sweetest breakfast of your life. With items on the menu like stacks of caramel-drizzled banana-bread pancakes or the notorious Cap’n Crunch french toast, you’d be a fool to miss out.
Just because we’re in college does not mean that we’re too old for the circus. The Greatest Show on Earth, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey is coming to Baltimore, but they won’t be here for long, so make sure you act quick. From March 30th until April 10th the world-famous circus will be hitting the 1st Mariner Arena, debuting their new tour entitled “Barnum’s FUNundrum!” The show promises exciting acts, such as a daring motorcycle troupe, high-wire walkers, and contortionists of incredible strength. Not to mention the ferocious, yet friendly tigers and majestic elephants galore. Unleash your inner child and come see just how crazy the circus really is these days.
