Ferry ride to The Rock

This was the whole reason I wanted to bring Joey — to tour Alcatraz. Johnny didn’t care one way or another, he never heard of it. Our tour was going to be short, just the self guided audio tour and off to the airport.

We literally were on the Island for about an hour. But that was all Johnny needed, he was mesmerized by the place. And a little creeped out. He refused to get in a cell with Joey for a picture. the views from the boat to and from the Island were amazing and then to actually see the place up close and personal, it’s something the boys won’t soon forget.

Breaking into skate parks might get them into something similar…

This is an aireal view of Golden Gate Park.

The marathon course took us through most of the Park, but we didn’t get to spend much time enjoying the scenery.

Monday morning we took our time getting ready and had breakfast about 9am. Auntie picked us up and took us to Golden Gate Park for the day. We initially wanted to try and kayak under the Golden Gate Bridge, but after spending Sunday with the boys she knew that would not be time well spent. They were POOPED OUT, and so was I.

We let the boys skate some of the bike trails and even did some paddle boats. It was beautiful. I let Joey take pictures, so most of those are of leaves or close ups of ducks butts or something. It’s amazing how crammed SFO city is, yet you get to a park and you could easily get lost in the lush landscape.
