Alcatraz and the wax Pope

After scaling these huge mountains we were felling pretty tough, so we decided to really test our manlyness by visting the home of some of the toughest people in the world, Alcatraz. But not before having a quick look at sculptures of our favourites celebrities. Another hike across the city took us to the 'must see' destination for all tourists, The Wax Museum. How anybody can dislike looking at wax verions of greats like Steve Irwin and the Lion From 'The Wizard of Oz' is beyond me this place was full of some of the creepiest looking faces if sen in my life.

A couple of plot twists later and we end up on Alactraz listening to  a recording about bowling and  a library. This place didn't seem that bad though, they even had radios in their cells and apparantly were quite the fans of kickball. Most of the exercise yard had been modified into a kickball court, and we were told of the huge championships and rivalries that existed behind prison walls.

Following Alcatraz, we went back home and engaged in the biggest American tradition out:
We got a large pizza, went back to the hotel room and watched Wrestling until we fell asleep.



Tasty!
