California tour day #9
Slut på touren och det var dags att säga hejdå till Ray som skulle med nästa tour. Vi gick upp tidigt och såg till att spana in den nya gruppen inna vi hoppade in i en Uber för att åka över till Alcatraz, det gamla fängelset. Det var riktigt coolt att se, kändes helt overkligt. Måste varit fruktansvärt att sitta inne där då alla hade världens minsta cell och det måste varit ruskigt kallt emellanåt. Vi fick lyssna på en tour och vi lärde oss om olika försök fångarna hade gjort för att rymma men ingen riktigt lyckats med. Tillbaka på fastlandet åt vi lunch på det kända Boudin där jag testade Clam Chowder i surdegs bröd. Sen ställde vi oss i en timmas kö för att åka spårvagn och sen jobbade vi oss sakta tillbaka till hostelet. Jag träffade senare en kompis från universitetet i Kalmar som nu bor i San Francisco med sin pojkvän. Vi hade vinprovning hemma pratade, skönt avslut på en hektisk vecka.
On our own in San Francisco. Got up kind of early to say good bye to Ray who started an other tour and to get ready for Alcatraz. Alcatraz was cool and it was a perfect day for it. The weather wasn't great but good enough for walking around partly indoor. It was like walking at a movie set, I cant believe that they used it only some years back. The cells were tiny and the conditions must have been terrible! But it was nice to see and worth every dime. When we got back I tried the famous creamy Clam Chowder in a sourdough bread bowl at Boudin by the pier. It was delicious! Then we waited an hour in line to go on the cablecar that also is famous in San Francisco. We made our way back to the hostel to eat and then i met up with a friend from the university I went to back in Sweden who now lived with her boyfriend only 7 minutes from were we stayed at the hostel. It was great to be able to meet her and we had a nice evening with cheap wine tasting.
