Day 13 - Yosemite - San Francisco (including Alcatraz)

I didn't write much at all today! Which amazes me because we travelled from Yosemite to San Francisco and then went out to Alcatraz! We enjoyed Alcatraz - but it's a 'been there done that' for me. No desire to go back. It was cold and you were forced to stay out there for a few hours when I wasn't THAT interested. Lots of photo's though with explanations...



Above are some photo's of the magnificence that is Yosemite National Park

Another chance for a special 'just us' photo

Nothing like as spectacular at sunset photo's last night! I'm so glad we made it!

The wind turbines on the way into San Francisco from Yosemite

Some more of the streets - hard to get an idea of the slope from a photo

Still trying to give an idea - that slope has nothing to do with the car - it shows the sidewalk slope!


Seals on the 'pontoons' just off the wharf

These are of Alcatraz taken from the boat on our way over





The above 5 are various ones in Alcatraz

and there IS actually something living on Alcatraz!

Our room at the San Remo Hotel - quaint, quirky and cute :)
