Alcatraz Island

Alcatraz Island was such a blast! I'm really glad we took the time to go see this before we left the west coast.


I kept threatening the kids that I would leave them at Alcatraz if they didn't behave, but I don't think they believed me.




The audio tour was incredible. The whole Alcatraz experience wouldn't have been the same without it.






Here are some of the VERY dangerous criminals that once lived in Alcatraz.

"Shotgun" Julia Sander
Grant "Hat Rack" Sander








The escape hatch.





Here they are... the escaped criminals!

everyone looked like they had a really great time. I bet that tour was fascinating. Where was Dan? Behind the camera this time? Every day we can tell who has it by the missing person in the pictures. Did you leave anyone behind?

If you look closely, you'll see Dan in the background of one of the pictures where the kids are listening to the audio tour. I tried to leave Grant behind, but he's too fast and managed to escape!
