Unfortunately, today is the last day of our trip. We started again with an amazing breakfast at the hotel. We had to get up pretty early today, because we left for Alcatraz. Once we arrived, we got separated in groups of seven and left for Alcatraz on a boat. On the island, we got showed around with an audio tour. It was really scary but cool seeing all the cells, especially the isolation cells.
When we got off the island, we walked back to Pier 39 to eat lunch, which was delicious.
In the afternoon, we got to see the world famous Golden Gate Bridge, which is one of the places many people have on their bucket lists. It is pretty amazing that we got to see it at this very young age. Well, we didn’t only get to see it; we walked over it, too. It was an amazing view over the San Francisco Bay from the middle of the bridge.
Tonight, we’re having dinner at the hotel and a good-bye party. It’s always sad leaving friends, considering that two weeks ago we didn’t even know each other, and now we are best friends… isn’t that crazy??
Well, we all had a ton of fun on this trip, made a lot of new friends, and got to see the best places of the American West-Coast. To all future exchange students out there: If you have the opportunity to go on this
trip, DO IT!
