Day 3: Alcatraz/Muir Woods/Sausalito

Rajesh and Nisha just left after we had green curry dinner prepared by Ju. It's delicious! We had a great time sharing about our holidays (They went LA when we're away).

Our third day in San Francisco was a one day tour booked through Viator.com. The tour comprised of Alcatraz, Muir Woods and Sausalito. This was our first visit to all three places and we loved them. The Alcatraz tour was an eye opener.  The self audio was really amazing! We were lucky to meet an ex-inmate of Alcatraz, Mr William G Baker and had his autograph. The prison looked alittle cozy though. 














Muir Woods should be very familiar to those who had watched the movie ' The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes'. It was a National Park with giant redwood trees. The air was very fresh in the park and it's really quiet there. Before we went to the park, the tour guide actually brought us to the top of a hill to see the beautiful scenery of the Golden Gate Bridge across the Pacific Ocean. The view was breathtaking! Our last stop was at Sausalito. There's nothing much there except for some beautiful places like the Yatch dock. We didn't took many pictures there though.







Afterall, the tour was really interesting and enjoyable especially with a very knowledgeable tour guide. Would go back for their tour package next time when we go on holidays.
