In San Francisco, I am doing sightseeing in stages – in a seven-year-long cycle: In 2003, I walked the streets of the city for a day. In 2010, I only had time to (re)visit the most important sights. Today, I finally visited one of the biggest tourist attractions in town: Alcatraz.

Hallo Bernie,
Deine Schilderungen von San Francisco erinnern mich an meine Reise dorthin. Mir hat die Stadt auch gut gefallen. Auf Alcatraz war ich allerdings nicht, dafür hatte ich mehr Zeit für das “touristische Pflichtprogramm” 🙂
LG
