Hello friends first of all I would like to introduce myself , I am Vinay and I would share with you my experience in USA. The time was when I was on my tour to USA , visited almost every important sites in USA. Here I will share with you the about the days that I have spent in Maryland. I will share with you about the places that I have visited in these two days in Annapolis. Some of them are Maryland State House, William Paca House and the famous Maryland's World War II Memorial. I used to rent a cab in every city so during my stay there I decided to hire a cab this time and see the city from there point of view. During my two days at Annapolis I stayed at a small hotel that suited my budget near the

Sandy Point State Park

On the first day I started my day from the historic Maryland State house. This is located in USA. It serves as the nation's capital house and it is the only capital house in USA. It is the main centre for Continental congress from November 26,1783 to August 13, 1784. George Washington was the head of Continental Army within the Old Senate Chamber who resigned in 1783 because he want to ensure that our country must governed by civil people and not by army. And the very next year the congress assembled a meeting in State House to clarify the Trey of Paris for ending the nation's war for independence.

Maryland State House

Since I hired the cab for the whole day so after spending some time there I asked the other fellow tourists and the locals of the Maryland about the must see place nearby also I asked my driver and he suggested me that Maritime Museum would be the nearest so from the capitol building I went to the museum. The Annapolis Maritime Museum's is located on the half shell and it is highly interactive because of its highly interactive display lights and it exhibit the natural history of oyster. It also defines the cultural history of people who tried their hard best to establish Oyster Company. From there I went to the famous Rams Head Tavern and had a good lunch there I decided to unleash William Pacca House .

Maryland's World War II Memorial
I spend my evening at Harwud House. It was a pretty beautiful house divided into five parts basically made up of bricks. It is a two story house having a central block, two story end wings and connecting hyphens on both sides. The hyphens are extracted as a blind area and the block at centre is having a hipped roof with a hood over it. The most beautiful thing about this house was beautiful door openings . At night I had a light food and had a glass of beer as I was feeling a bit tired and next morning when I woke up I went to the Sandy Point State Park. I had my lunch there. Since I had to see Maryland's World War II Memorial and have a limited time so I decided to skip my scheduled visit to Naval Academy.

Pacca House
Maryland's World War II Memorial was unique. Many of the visitors were exploring the history by visiting the four sided open theater which was having 100 foot diameter containing 100 pillars which usually represents different states during the time of war whose count was also 48. During  this war 6000+ people lost their lives giving a tribute to their country's nation. From there I went to the hotel from where I have to go further to unleash the New Jersey.
