We started the day visiting Alcatraz Island and saw the prison...which was for some of the worst criminals. We took an audio tour and it was one of the most interesting things I've seen. Not only could explore this real prison, we could also see beautiful San Franciso from the island...what a view of the bay!
Next up was lunch at Pier 39. We enjoyed time last minute shopping, got one last view of the sea lions, and some of us even ate at Hard Rock Cafe and got a free t shirt!
It was then time to take our walk across the Golden Gate Bridge...what an experience! Walking across the bridge was an awesome feeling...you feel so free and we all got the feeling that "wow...we are really here!" The bridge is 1.71 miles and with every step we had refreshing wind and a beautiful view of San Francisco. We ended our walk with a group picture in front of the bridge, with everyone in their trip tshirts...perfect.
In the evening we had the last dinner together, and we danced all the night away with our very own DJ. We had much to celebrate: Stine's birthday, a beautiful trip, and new friendships that will last forever.
Now we say not our goodbyes, but our "see you laters" for this is not an end, but a whole new beginning.
