Day Eleven: San Fracisco Day Tour and Alcatraz

Today we started the day off early, with a trip to the Alcatraz Jail. Alcatraz Jail was the home to many dangerous criminals such as Al Capone.

It was super interesting to hear about their lives in prison. We listened to a story via headphones while we were guided around Alcatraz. We heard about how they tried to escape in many different and smart ways. There were three guys who escaped and no one ever found them, but they think the escapers went to South America. We sailed back to San Francisco and ate lunch at Pier 39.

After that we hopped on the bus and drove to The Golden Gate Bridge. We walked The Golden Gate Bridge. Some of us power walked and some walked slow and took lots of pictures. The city views were amazing! It wasn't foggy like most people said it was so we not only saw all of San Francisco but different bridges and Alcatraz. Then everyone was back on the bus after the walk, we drove to the hotel where we all had some time to go to the pool, take a nap or do whatever else we wanted to do. In the evening we went to the Hilton hotel to have our goodbye party with a delicious buffet. We all voted for The Belo Oscar winners. We found out the winners after dinner, and further down you can see the different categories and winners listed. After the Oscar winners we had a party with a DJ. Tomorrow we will leave on the airplane early in the morning, so this has been our last day of the bus trip.
