CALLA LILLIES
There are beautiful flowers all over the island. Here is a picture of calla lillies.

PURPLE FLOWERS
This plant is called PRIDE OF MADERA.
Large purple plumes bloom from March through May.

ALCATRAZ
Here we are near the NIKE MISSLE site with Alcatraz and the city of San Francisco behind us.

GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE AGAIN
This is another view of the Gold Gate Bridge.

CAMP REYNOLDS DOCENT
This is Chuck. He was waiting to give a tour to a group of students visiting the island.

CAMP REYNOLDS BAKERY
Camp Reynolds was used during the Civil War. Here we are in the bakery in front of the original oven which still works!

CAMP REYNOLDS PARLOR
The Victorian House at Camp Reynolds has been restored by volunteers. This is the parlor as it might have looked back in the 1880's.

PIANO IN THE PARLOR
Flat Stanley wanted to play this piano but he was too little!

IN JAIL
Before Angel Island was a park it was used as a military base. There is a jail on the island in case any soldiers became rowdy!

GETTING CARS TO ANGEL ISLAND
Ever wonder how cars get to an island if there is no bridge? This boat takes cars and trucks!

ON THE FERRY
Here we are leaving Angel Island on the ferry boat.

GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE
You can see the Golden Gate Bridge in the back ground.
