So one of the more touristy attractions that I was lukewarm on seeing was Alcatraz Prison. The ferry ride out to the island is a little pricey, and the thought of visiting a dirty old prison was just not that appealing. But then everyone that I talked to told me how great the experience actually is so I relented and decided to give it a shot. Well sadly since I had not done any research about what it takes to visit Alcatraz, I did not realize that there are only a certain number of admissions allowed, and that the ferry rides fill up more than a week in advance. When I finally looked into it, all the trips to Alcatraz were booked for the week that I was there. Damnation! Yet another thing to add to the "next time" list.
