Looks like something happened here
where exercises and games are held
in the open recreational areas
Catching some sun
A connecting block to more cells
The sky lit roofs
In am in Jail! :3
with first hand experiences from inmates themselves
the life on the rock
talking about inmate experiences
The "cuttoff"
in the prison
the guide brings you along various key points
thick bars, designed to keep stuff in!
The multi-tier prison network
The cells are actually quite spacious
inside the prison compound
lock and load!
where you will be given these audio guides
The queue lines in starts here
Open toilets included!
The open shower areas
Change of clothes anyone?
The main shower areas
And so the story begins
Who goes in never comes out! wahahaha!
Lets go to jail!
The main prison building
Adjacent buildings
Inside the morgue
The morgue
as well as a federal and military prison
alcatraz served as a military fortification
Often referred to as "The Rock"

The now-abandoned prison
The Social Hall, destroyed by fire during the Native American occupation
Many of the derelict buildings around
moving along the prison walk
mostly retirees offering their time as guides for the national parks
Apparently all the guides are volunteers
Our guide for the day!
The main holding areas by the docks
Welcome Indians!
Aye off the clipper matey!
Anchoring the boat by the berth
The alcatraz docks
It's like no man's land
Approaching the rock
We came from there!
