On the way to Alcatraz

At Alcatraz we did one of those
tours where you rent the headphones and it tells you stuff, I found
this whole thing exciting since I was interested in prisons when I
was in college. This was a highlight of my trip. We also
went on part of a live tour of the underground that the Military had
used before it was a Federal Prison.

After Alcatraz we went over to the
Ghirardelli factory shopping center thing, which was very nice.
After that I was starving so my group broke off and I went off with
the kookie guy from Vegas for lunch. We ended up at some
quaint little restaurant where the guy working their thought we were
a couple, then thought we were with a church group, then that we
were gay. It was an interesting lunch. Then we headed up
to Lombard Street where we ran into other people from the tour, it's
amazing how small a city becomes when you're on a tour. At
this point I went back to sightseeing with my regular group and we
headed off to Chinatown on the cable cars. It was a nice ride
through the city. After Chinatown we saw some other stuff,
Coit Tower, Washington Church (I think that's the name), and the
Trans American Pyramid.

After touring the city we went back
to the hotel to chill a bit then went to dinner with a bunch of
people, after wandering a bit we finally found a place to eat.
After dinner some went in the hotel hot tub and there was a room
party where I heard some guy in the hotel had been arrested while
someone on the tour was on the phone with his mother in Australia.
Good times had by all!
