The Rock...
... about 7pm just in time for dinner. We found a japanese restaurant before heading back to the hotel to sleep after an exhausting couple of days.
The next morning, we needed to return the hire car, which we were meant to do the day before, but we arrived later than expected, and then catch a ferry to Alcatraz. We arrived for the ferry just in time, and were on our way! The ferry ride was just over 10 minutes. I knew some of the ...
Frisco : The city by the bay

TRY THE CHICKEN FEET!
... with lobster rolls, and shrimp salad in the glass cases. My aunt wondered where they got the "fresh" lobster from, because lobster isn't really a California thing. I thought that was rather funny, but I'm sure the lobster rolls were yummy. I'm from a state where seafood is abundant and moderatly priced. No need to pay 12 dollars for a piece of bread with "fresh" lobster on it. Once we got to the Alcatraz ticket center, they had a nice warm gift shop with a coffee shop inside as ...
