our first stop in california was san francisco. we didn't have too much time to spend there. the only thing we had planned for sure was touring Alcatraz. a few summers ago when we lived in california, i went to san francisco a few times, so i was able to see most of the popular tourist sites. this time around, we decided to tour alcatraz, walk around fisherman's wharf and eat at our favorite place, boudin. their sourdough bread is amazing!




we took the early morning tour of Alcatraz and we BARELY made it on time. oh man, at one point i thought we should have just turned around because all hope was lost. thank heavens we made it and it was so fun!
