We arrived about 7 AM. We had tickets for the Hop On Hop Off bus at 8:50. What a great tour. It was 2 1/2 hours! We went through Downtown, Chinatown, Haight Ashbury and over the Golden Gate Bridge. The weather was very cloudy but it didn't rain! It looked pretty iffy first thing but about 11, the sun came out!

Much more expensive than Washington State! |

Golden Gate Park |
It was very cold and windy going over the Golden Gate Bridge. Of course were at the top of a topless bus! After the tour, the bus took us back to the ship where we had as lovely lunch. Then off to Pier 39 where Lexie loved the chocolate and fudge stores. I purchased tickets online for an Alcatraz Prison Tour. We took the boat at 2:45 and the weather was nicer! Lexie is planning on majoring in Criminology and she was very interested with the entire tour!

On the way back to the ferry, what a gorgeous day it turned out to be. |

Books for Lexie - she picked them out! |

I loved this trolley! Lots of them running down the street and they were all old! |
The entertainment was "Tyler Bryce - One Man of Many Voices". He was excellent. Then off to another game show. Lexie came and played too. Lots of people and we met a nice couple. Not even close to winning but lots of fun.
