the rock

although i have been to alcatraz a number of times (i think this was my 5th visit?) pete never has so he was able to take off from work for a long lunch and we took a tour of the island. i never mind going back- so much cool stuff to see, besides the prision there are tons of old buildings in various states of ruin and great trails that go all around the island with amazing views of the city

pete making his way down michigan avenue- what the prisoners called this row between the cells
this was the gaurds old rec building
pete in "the hole" a door behind the gates is shut letting virtually no light in
the old power house
back to the mainland
