Tags: accomodations | california | food | museums | walking We did Alcatraz today. Awesome tour. It may be one of the most cliche things to do in San Francisco, but I think it's a good thing to do. After that we had lunch at Pier 39 and walked around. Nothing too exciting. We stopped at a shop on the pier where you pick an oyster out of a barrel and they get a pearl out of it for you. Jess got one and had it mounted on a ring. It felt like a total scam, but it was fun. The woman even gave us an extra pearl because we told her we are on a trip for our anniversary. Very nice Asian women worked there. I got Steelers underwear for game day at an NFL shop. It sounds weird, I know, but it's actually very exciting for me.
Had dinner at an Italian place where the food was excellent, but the service was horrible. We probably sat for 25 minutes waiting for our plates to be cleared. We had a bottle of wine to get through to pass the time, though.
Sorry, but today just wasn't as exciting.
Except for when Jess blew up the hotel hair dryer, and clogged the toilet. Although the toilet wasn't her fault. It was just a coincidence, but a funny one. A repair guy was here for about 30 minutes trying to fix it. We're fine now.
I believe this negates me being wrong earlier in the trip. The score is now 0-0. Jess loses two points because of destruction of property, etc.
