Baltimore and the iphone


Farra and I took a mini trip to Baltimore for our friends' wedding last week. We were able to really appreciate what the"charm city" had to offer.

We rolled in Thursday and had the unfortunate mishap of forgetting / losing our camera on the airplane so these pics were all taken with the clutch iPhone.

Being that we are a bit food obsessed I researched for restaurants and found this great farm to table one called Woodberry Kitchen...saving this for a post by itself :) This place is located in the Woodberry area of Baltimore. Back in the early 1900s it used to be a huge milling area that now houses townhomes, condos, art gallery, and the Woodberry Kitchen. They did a nice job of incorporating the old buldings and putting a new twist on it.


This is the inside of the old milling factory, which now serves as the parking garage for all the residents.

The pool sits at the bottom of what used to be the basement. This reminds me of a hotel in Puebla, called La Purificadora, done by famous Mexican architect Ricardo Legorreta and his son.

We fell in love with this district and ultimately fell in love with Baltimore.
