solitary confinement!
I see the light!
Looks like something happened here
in the open recreational areas
Behind these walls
alcatraz in films
Lets move on!
The sky lit roofs
More fire ravaged buildings
get me out!
many didn't make it across
I am not escaping!
The cliffside walk of the island
The golden gate in the distance
no one knows where they are now, presumed drowned
with the double gate and door system
Notable wardens of an era gone
The main parade square
Buildings ravaged by the fire
the spread looks good!
talking about inmate experiences
Early dismissal from prison
thick bars, designed to keep stuff in!
Many tried crossing the bay
the guide brings you along various key points
in the prison
cheese! precarious looking structure on a cliff!
the vault!
Some of the nicely decorated cells
lie the high security areas of the prison
With the notorious key to the gun store
Hey all the knifes are missing!
Things inmates do to pass the time
The cells are actually quite spacious
So near yet so far
inside the prison compound
this time the warden's office by the hill top
lets head back to jail
The prison block from the courtyard
Oh I am a very good boy indeed!
The administrative block
man! no wonder noone makes it out!
and surrounding gardens
Visitor waiting areas
Freedom!
The city of San Fran in the distance
Crude simple spectator seats
Xmas carnival style!
