The queue lines in starts here
The morgue
Old Warehouses by the piers
alcatraz served as a military fortification
It's like no man's land
Approaching the rock
Many of the derelict buildings around
Inside the morgue
The main prison building
Awesome winter weather
And so the story begins
The now-abandoned prison
Apparently all the guides are volunteers
Who goes in never comes out! wahahaha!
