Ultim dia a SanFran. D'hora al demati hem anat a visitar Alcatraz, la famosa preso immortalitzada a les pelicules, a 2km de la costa. Sabieu que va comensar com a forti de defensa de la bahia I que ara es parc natural?
Despres hem fet la turistada del 'cable car', el tramvia que va pels carrers tant empinats. Molt diver.

I be, escric el miss desde l'avio cap a Alaska. We are going "Into the wild" ... Pero amb maleta de rodes I d'hotel :)

PS - aterrant a Anchorage sobrevoles uns massissos nevats / glaciars .... k maku! fotos en proxims misstgs.

This is our last day in Frisco. Early in the morning we have booked a visit to Alcatraz, the famous out-of-service prision, popular in the movies, about 2Km far from the coast.Did you know it started as a Fort, to defend the Frisco Bay and that now is a natural reserve and that it may become a hotel?

We've then made the "for tourists" Cable Car ride, going up and down the hilly streets on a real old tram. Real fun!

I am writing already on the plane to Anchorage, Alaska. We are going "Into the Wild" ... but with a suitcase with wheels :) By the way, flying over Anchorage you get beautiful views of snowy mountain ranges and glaciars. Lovely! Pics on the next post.
