On Friday we visited Alcatraz Island, and the former prison there. It was interesting to see where the (in)famous prisoners were kept and how they lived. If you go, the audio tour is excellent! You can see here the inside of the prison, with the rows of cells (which are VERY small), and also the view of the mainland from the island. It doesn't look that far, but the swim is thought to have killed any who managed to escape.
Where are we?

So jealous you flew first class! Very arty pic of Alcatraz! Hope you have fun!
OK I've decided I'm going to hate logging on regularly to check out your fab vacation...
The SF Museum of Modern Art is worth checking out if you have time, as is the Yerba Buena centre (just opposite). You can have a cocktail in the W next door to SFMOMA too!
