Friday, the 29th, we took the ferry ($6.50 each because we are old) to San Francisco, getting off at the Ferry Dock.
We slowly walked from the Ferry Dock to Ghirardelli Square taking a few pictures along the way. This is Coit Tower, which we will see close up on a tour.
We ate lunch at Pier 39, where we saw the sea lions and Forbes Island. ![]()

I thought of Ken Miller when we saw this guy just playing away on this Hammer Dulcimer.
As we walked along the various piers, I took this picture of Alcatraz Island.
Then we ate a couple of free samples at Ghirardelli Square.
As we left pier 41 on the ferry, I took this picture looking back at San Francisco.
The fog was really rolling in as we left on the ferry. This is Alcatraz Island from the stern of the ferry, a little after 4pm. ![]()

Saturday, the 30th of March. We drove east on I-80 to Vacaville for a morning Sam’s Club run. Then it was WalMart where we shopped and ate Cheddar Onion Burgers at McDonald’s. After lunch we drove back to Fairfield for a tour of the Budweiser Brewery. Marilyn had a Shock Top, and I had a Black Crown. I will drink more of the Black Crown. ![]()
Easter Sunday, the 31st of March. We stayed home to celebrate Easter, as well as staying warm, since it is cool and has rained off and on. I did some more work organizing pictures so that I can put them on the Chapter 16 and 57 websites. Marilyn has been cooking. We will have another delicious Leg of Lamb meal, with a bottle of Champagne to celebrate Easter.
