This morning Sarah, Deirdre, and I went shopping very efficiently. We ended up getting everything we wanted during this shopping trip. This morning off was really nice for all of us because we got to relax a little. Deirdre and I got awesome sweatshirts that have the California flag on them.
We went to Alcatraz at 1:55, which was really fun!!! Leaving the dock was really exciting and seeing the island get closer and the signs warning about the escapees. The nice bay breeze was very refreshing. We went to see the movie and it was very interesting and I learned a lot of things about Alcatraz that I didn't know. For example, I did not know it had been used for political reasons, or that the guards families and kids lived on the island as well. Then we went on an audio tour. The narrators were very interesting and the background noise made it seem so life-like. Sometimes the narration was a bit too descriptive. I ended up getting a book about the bird-man a gang member.
Alcatraz was really nice and seemed very friendly. The island had a wide assortment of birds flying around it as we approached it. The prison cells were very spooky but the outside views were gorgeous!!
