Historic Homes in Salisbury
History is always better when there's a chance to let it interact with all five of your senses. We just visited two of Salisbury's most notable historic homes Pemberton Hall (circa 1741) and the Poplar Hill Mansion (circa 1795). Both homes have had extensive restoration and also have very friendly and knowledgable guides to give tours. Walk through history. Touch it. Hear it. See it. Smell it. And since you can't taste anything at these homes stop by Market Street Inn for a delicious meal.
TIP: Try the key lime pie!
Kiteboarding with East Of Maui
Kiteboarding is a relatively new sport. It's roots touch on surfing, windsurfing and wakeboarding but there's one major addition. A huge kite! Kiteboarding is catching on here in delmarva in a big way and East Of Maui Surf Shop in Dewey Beach is leading the charge. They are the only shop in area to stock a full range of the equipment and offer private lessons at all levels. The wind season is about to kick in again so give them a shout and get in the game!
TIP: I highly recommend Jaime, he's very friendly and knowledgable!
A Waterman's World: Crisfield, Maryland

Crisfield, Maryland is what it is: a watermen's world. We loved it for that! It's a no frills, down and dirty crab pickin' small town with a sea-faring history that dates back to 1850s with the discovery of oyster beds.
