Today we went to see the latest Harry Potter movie. Mik was extremely disappointed because they basically changed everything and it is almost just a movie based on the characters of the book or inspired by the book. Mik said he would have rather gone to the Civil War sites we originally planned for today before the movie release got moved from Friday to Wednesday. It was not horrible in my opinion, but it was not very good either. I really think it left a lot of important things out and added a lot of crap comedy.
Almost as soon as we got back to camp it started to rain, so now we are sitting in the Rec Room for a few hours until it closes and hopefully the rain clears up entirely. I am going to try to catch up on posts from the last five days or so, as I still have things to post about from July 10 through July 14. It would be nice to catch up before we begin going to games again tomorrow.

Car Sticker Update: Baltimore Orioles
The American League side of the car is getting very full even, as only two more of the six remaining ballparks we need to see are American League ones. The one Dad got for the Baltimore Orioles says Orioles and has the Orioles bird above the team name.
Kj’s Baseball Collection: Camden Yards
I was able to find a pretty interesting Camden Yards ballpark baseball at the Orioles game. One strip has a brick background and says Camden Yards in big orange letters on it. The other strip is a view of the Orioles Park at Camden Yards outfield with the unique warehouse and Eutaw Street in the background. Actually it really is not a view of the outfield and really just of view of the park behind the outfield wall. Anyways it is a view that makes it quite clear that it is none other than Orioles Park at Camden Yards.
Kj’s Baseball Collection: Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum
At the Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum I got a souvenir baseball with the museum’s logo. The logo features an image of Babe Ruth at bat and says Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum. The baseball also has an image of Babe Ruth’s signature. The other side lists Babe Ruth’s records such as home runs, walks, home run titles, and mutli home run games.
Mik’s Mini Bat Collection: Orioles Park at Camden Yards
Mik choose a mini bat of the ballpark as his Orioles mini bat. He actually got it at the Sports Legends Museum, but they ended up having them at the Orioles game as well. The mini bat is natural on the bottom and has an orange background on the top. There is an image of the ballpark as a sort of aerial view on the mini bat. It says Orioles Park at Camden Yards about the ballpark image.
Mik’s Mini Bat Collection: Babe Ruth
At the Babe Ruth Birthplace and Museum Mik got a Babe Ruth mini bat. The mini bat has a photo image of Babe Ruth and a Yankees logo on it. It also has the National Baseball Hall of Fame logo. Basically it is the design that they sell at the Hall of Fame, so it is not like it is unique to this attraction, but it was better than the Louisville Slugger that just said Babe Ruth and also did not say anything about it being from the Babe Ruth Museum.
Smashed Pennies: Sports Legends Museum
At the Sports Legends Museum I got two smashed pennies and Mik got one smashed penny. The design we both got has an image of the museum’s building. It says Sports Legends History Heritage Heroes. The other design that only I got is of Orioles Park at Camden Yards, although the penny just says Camden Yards, Baltimore, MD. It has an image of the park and little Orioles logos on it.
