It is a beautiful city. Have to admit though after a while the hills get a little tiring ! One of the only cities where you are being literal when you give directions and say it's down the street, or up that road !

glutton for punishment?

 

[Hard Ball Get]

glutton for punishment?

Pretty much. Haven't seen much joy as a fan of the dogs as well.

Was a charloette hornets fan in the 90s and followed the franchise. It's weird having a different team player under the same name.

to enjoy the Premiership celebrations back at Footscray Saturday night after epic win.

It will be fantastic that's for sure. Many I'm sure from far and wide will make the trip down to the Whitten Oval the next day after our great premiership win

What did you think of Alcatraz?

 

[Hard Ball Get]

What did you think of Alcatraz?

I've been there too. Alcatraz is pretty good. To be honest I enjoyed Port Arthur more.

 

[Thedogdays_r_over]

What did you think of Alcatraz?

Fascinating !!!!! The history and the architecture is enthralling, I'm a history buff so any chance to visit a location as iconic as Alcatraz is a thrill !

Yes seeing it in pictures and all is one thing and then actually being there is another.

Couldn't agree more. It is the feeling that you can't describe unless you've physically set foot on the island. I don't mean that in a supernatural ghostly way, more in a manner that the buildings and the island overall has witnessed and absorbed years and years of human emotion and comings and goings and that is reflected throughout. Even though it is now no longer used, it doesn't feel empty.

Yep for sure. Wore my Doggies Hoodie and Doggies Cap when I was there. Very lucky with the weather as well. Was sunny all week I was there.
