Ben lives only a couple blocks from the waterfront, and we prioritized a jog or walk along the brick boardwalk every single day the sun was out this week.
It is so gorgeous and calm, with the swanky dockside apartments and highrises on one side and the endless little harbors filled with speedboats, sailboats, yachts, rowboats on the other...seriously, it seems like every person in Baltimore with a slightly significant amount of money owns their own boat.
I would love to live by the water someday; there is something special about the air of the seaside although a lake or river would definitely be good enough.
Ben and I have pipe dreams revolving around owning our own huge sleek yacht and sailing around the world.
(Although it would have to run on used cooking oil or something that wouldn't pollute the water or else I would feel too guilty. !!)
The bottom picture is our favorite yacht that we picked out. I think it nicely balances sleek and classy with plenty of sun-bathing deckspace and maybe enough room for dinner on the water. Yup those are all my priorities. Perfect.
I've pretty much determined that I won't ever die a happy person until I live by the water and own a little sailboat. Living my whole life in the center of the US is really getting to me...
ReplyDeleteLiving by the water really is the best. Last year, I was pretty close. I could see the ocean every day as I walked home from the train, and it was gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteNothing better than living by the ocean...
ReplyDeleteaw I'm glad to hear my fiance and I are not the only ones who walk around and look at amazing houses (or yachts!) and envisions themselves one day living there! haha we did a lot of that this weekend :)
ReplyDeleteTotally with you. A friend of a friend claims to have known someone who bought and revamped a retired Staten Island Ferry, turning it into the awesomest houseboat in the history of...ever. We should all be so lucky.
