Bay Cruise under the bridge and around Alcatraz Island


We took an hour long boat tour of the Bay. We went under the Golden Gate Bridge, and around Alcatraz. It was great.


These birds were chilling out on one of the base supports of the bridge.

This seagull was floating along at the same speed as the boat. The wind was strong enough that it never needed to flap its wings.

Alcatraz Island, famous for the former federal penitentiary. It is claimed to be one of the most visited national sights in the United States.
