We checked into the Courtyard Marriott on Fishermen’s Wharf and were given an amazing suite. The Concierge never saw a Lifetime Platinum Card before.
Besides the room we had a great view of Alcatraz.

We anchored next to the famous Los Arcos (arch). Our day was relaxing on board the ship since we have been here many times.
We even did the gym so we are “a little” ready for another great dinner.
