Last Day :(

Today was our last day. And, of course, we did a lot of stuff like every day.Our day began at 9 o'clock when we rode the bus to the Alkatratz prison in the San Francisco Bay. It was interesting to see and the Audiotour was also great. After our prisonvisit we went shopping at a street where you can buy lots of Hippi stuff. I really liked it.Then we went to the Golden Gate Bridge and all of us walked across the bridge.It was so much fun to me and the view was just amazing. The last evening came closer and we went dining at the Hardrock cafe. It was a nice evening. And now we are all very said that the westcost tour is almost over. We made new friends, learned more about the United States and had a lot of FUN...Thank You BELO!!!

On Saturday morning, everybody woke up early for the super good breakfast that included the already made pancakes. The majority of the students were prepered for the cold San Francisco weather. Our first stop for the day was at the pier 39. Between all the parked ships, the sea lions were also there. The main reason for us being there is to buy souvenirs, and the place was full of that kind of shops. After spending our time for shopping we went to the Golden Gate Bridge, we crossed the 2 miles onm the bridge. While walking we could see different views of the surroundings: the down town of San Francisco, the prison of Alcatraz, etc.
About 45 minutes later, we went back to the bus and drove to pier 33 where we took a boat to go to the island with Alcatraz proson. we spent 2 hours listeing to the audio guid which told us the history of the proson and made us walk around. Back the continent, we went shoppnig in the Hippie area for about 20 minutes. At 7:oo pm, we were in the Hard Rock Cafe' for our last meal together. To finish the day between happiness and sadness, Bernardo gave us this amazing speech which made think about our future. I learned that the West Cost trip was not only a trip, it's a trip with really strong friendships that will last forever.

Peace to you all.
