San Juan Capistrano Mission

Happy Martin Luther King Day to all!
Both Sydney and I were off work and out of school so we spent the day just the two of us 'loafering around' (is that a southern term?). Sydney is studying the California missions at school. Her report and project are on the Santa Cruz Mission. Since that one is about 7 hours north of us, we decided to visit a closer one - San Juan Capistrano Mission. She gets extra credit for visiting and writing a report about the visit. My friends at work laugh at me because I have Sydney do all extra credit or optional activities. Can't hurt, right? Don't feel too sorry for her, after the educational visit we went shopping and to a movie.
Here are a few pictures of the mission. I am sure you history buffs will be mesmerized. The rest of you can scroll on down to see pictures of the girls.
