Ferry Ride




Just a ferry ride away from San Francisco there's a whole other world.  Angel Island.  Such a great get away for a day.  A combination of a beautiful natural sight and a place steeped in history.  We  went in the museums which echo of the stories of the people that went through there.  The poetry is etched into the walls.  That poetry, that is still on the wall, is in Chinese as they were detained there the longest.The rooms are set up as they were then at the turn of the century and you can almost hear the anxious voices in all the languages waiting to be let into America. The ferry runs just twice a day so after a few rides on the rope swing we raced back to sail back to the mainland.
