It's quite imposing, even in it's shut down condition (actually is a National Park) to look out at the rocky island and imagine the criminals that have been housed there. Upon reading a little on The Rock, it seems that the famous escape of the three inmates still remains open to this day and will remain open on each man until their 100th birthday. Sometimes I really wonder .......
But we saw San Francisco Bay and waived hello to Chuck in San Quentin on our way past. Found ourselves a nice, clean hotel room with a view of the bay and may have some chinese cuisine for dinner.
It's a wonderful life....
San Fran is one of the coolest places we ever stayed but we parked @ Washington and Embarcadero overnite.
ReplyDeleteI think we paid $50 for the spot but it was well worth it sans the shower:).
I have been and enjoy reading your blog adventures as it reminds me of how much this job has been..
