Mission San Juan Capistrano check out

Ben and I fueled up before our mission to the mission with guacamole and a side of other random things…but believe it when I say guac was the main event

I don’t know if schools do this throughout the U.S., but in California you learn about all the Spanish Missions of California in 4th grade. I fondly remember making a model of a mission – it was the greatest project of my elementary school career!

One of my favorite missions was San Juan Capistrano and the other day I realized I live only a few miles north of it! I’m a California girl, but I’m new to Orange county so this was exciting news!!!

After lunch I was ecstatic to head to San Juan Capistrano armed with my cam and 9 year old inner child

Admission is $9.00 for adults and $5.00 for children. entrance comes with the audio excursion too.

I love historical excursions like this – I’m extra partial to this because it combines California history with Spanish conquistadors enslaving the natives building missions and churches to spread the word of God and eventually having babies with the locals and one day lots of years later, making all those genes combine to make a Mexican-Spanish-red-headed-Californian named Monica (that would be me).

I may not remember a lot about what I learned in 4th grade, but I remember the story of the Swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano very Camiseta Olympique Lyonnais clearly. On March 19th the mission celebrates the return of the swallows. They are the birds that fly from Argentina Camiseta AC Milan to California annually ideal on schedule!  This is their home (and mine too).

I love calla lilies. someone tell Ben

Today was chilly, but gorgeous! I couldn’t stop taking pictures and it was so tough to choose the ones to post!

“Vaya con Dios”

After our mission to the mission we needed some refreshments. I also needed some trail mix, but that missed the cam thanks to my cat like reflexes of eating Oops.

Work out: considering that yesterday was my long run, today is a rest Day. A great walk and some light abs were all I did.

I plan on enjoying the Academy awards while eating spaghetti for the rest of the night. I’ll see you in the morning

Speaking of CA fun – here’s my post from Nov. when I checked out the Olivas Adobe the day before the Malibu half Marathon!
