Sunday was our final day of vacation (since Monday would be spent mostly on the plane). We packed most everything there is to see in San Francisco in on one day. We started off taking the cable car from Union Square down the Fisherman's Wharf. We took a Cable Car tour that was a great overview of the city and took us through Chinatown, Little Italy, Union Square, Russian Hill and by the waterfront. For lunch we had sourdough bread bowls with clam chowder or chili at Boudin. Joel and I took a tour of the USS Pampanito submarine that is in the harbor...which Joel enjoyed a little more than I did. We walked around Pier 39, saw the sea lions and had a funnel cake, went to Gharadelli Square and the Palace of Fine Arts before taking our night tour of Alcatraz. This was the highlight of the day! The audio tour was really great, and since we were on the night tour they do some special talks. We finished out the night with dinner at a restaurant on the wharf. We certainly had a packed vacation! Joel and I have decided that we will have to alternate active vacations like this one with relaxing vacations like Jamaica. I think I'm ready for my relaxing vacation any day now...
