Field Trip to Baltimore Aquarium

On May 8th, I got to chaperone my first elementary field trip, and it only took me until Hannah's 5th grade year! This year's 3rd through 5th grade field trip took the girls to Baltimore Aquarium. Just weeks before the trip Baltimore erupted in race riots over police brutality. Thankfully the protests were not near the inner harbor and had calmed to peaceful protests by the time of our trip. Sophie asked Grandma to be her chaperone for the trip. Here are photos from our day:

Looks like she survived!
