Can’t remember the last time I went to see a movie in a theater. Must have been in Finland where we used to go almost every week. Since I’m badly jetlagged and stuck at the hotel (my colleague who has rented a car for all of us went shopping alone !), I decided to go next door: Universal Studios. If only they served beer… Note to self: the drink and popcorn are more expensive than the movie ticket.

Alcatraz Island, commonly referred to as simply Alcatraz or locally as The Rock, is a small island located in the middle of San Francisco Bay in California, United States. It served as a lighthouse, then a military fortification, then a military prison followed by a federal prison until 1963. It became a national recreation area in 1972 and received landmarking designations in 1976 and 1986.

San Francisco’s historic F-line streetcars, far from comfy but enjoyable nonetheless.
