A little go cart and a big city

Yesterday, we set out on our Go Car tour. I tell you what, this was something else. I have researched these on the Internet (www.gocars.com) for almost a month now and I still was not prepared for what I experienced. First of all, it runs like a four wheeler. Secondly, it is like a mario cart. Thirdly, it is suppose to go only 30 mph. Don't worry ours only did that going down very steep hills. On the upside of those hills. . .not so good. We had to get out and push it. Yes, in the middle of very busy streets. It was slightly mortifying.

We had planned on getting the car for about 3 hours. It is GPS navigated and it tells you every move to make, or at least attempts to. Anyways, you have the option to pull over at several stops to see the views and take pictures. It really was a great way to see the town and if you are ever visiting somewhere that has go cars, you must do it. Zach and I laughed so hard a few times that the people on the streets were laughing. Like the time it would not make it up the hill and the construction workers pushed up! :)

Of course we also had to make a pit stop to see the Sea Lions. Call me uncultured or whatever but dang they are HUGE. I could not believe it. They stink, make crazy noise and attract tons of people.

Last night we went to Alcatraz. I have been looking forward to this for a while and I was not let down. It is so amazing being in there and hearing the stories. We did the audio tour which was navigated by actual inmates and officers. It was not scary like we had heard but I will say it was kinda eerie. I really can't go into detail and even do justice so I will just show you some pictures.

Now that I am typing our update I don't feel like we did a ton yesterday but boy we were Exhausted. Yes, with a capital E.
