The Prison
As we waited for the ferry that would take us to Alcatraz
island, we enjoyed some local entertainment. The funny thing is, we saw street
entertainers just like these in Paris. |

Here is some more entertainment. All those brown lumps
lying on those floating platforms are seals. Seals sing, dance, and just stink
up the air. |
Very cool tour. As you walk, you receive a walkman,
head set, and tour cassette. The tape walks you through the prison describing what
you are seeing and who was jailed here. |

Those bastards finally caught me. I got life. |
This is the hole. When you are really bad, you get to
check into this lovely room. Trust me, you want to behave. |
 |
 |
Well, that's it. Time to go back to the mainland.
Yes, we got paroled. George calls his sweetie letting her know that the
breakout won't be necessary. |

Among many things that really suck when you are imprisoned on
Alcatraz is the awesome view of San Francisco. The tour tape told us that prisoners
could hear parties, especially on new year's eve. |
