Walking around, visiting various shops and restaurants, and even sitting down to take in some of the fantastic street performer shows is usually a lot of fun. The food is fantastic, especially if you&#8217;re a seafood fan, the atmosphere is upbeat and jovial, and there is always something to see or do. I might save this activity for the spring and summer, however.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also relish heading down to Inner Harbor and M&amp;T Stadium when Championship weekend rolls around for NCAA Lacrosse. Since the Lacrosse Hall of Fame is in Baltimore, the area becomes a hotbed of Lacrosse-related activities. The expos and vendor tents, as well as the games, make for a really enjoyable time. The sport of lacrosse draws people from all over, fostering a strong sense of community.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9.
