As we all arrived individually, Larry picked us up from the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transportation) station in Millbrae one by one. We spent the afternoon resting up, some of us (me) finishing "Cannery Row" by Steinbeck. Once we had all made it in, we took the BART to San Francisco and walked around the town. It was very exciting walking from Pier 3 to 39, checking out the waterfront and all the places along the way.
When we arrived at Pier 39 we got some great photographs of Alcatrez and the famous California sea lions on the docks. We admired the sea lions for a bit and got pictures and video. Because we were starving we wandered around for a restaurant, we found Boudin's -- a place with great clam chowder and sourdough, among other things. On the way back to BART we got Ben and Jerry's, even though we were freezing. So delicious though :) and they had hot chocolate, too!
We made our way back to Millbrae via BART and crashed to rest up for the fun week ahead!
