San Juan Capistrano

We enjoyed a lovely day at the mission San Juan Capistrano, established in 1776. It's just over an hour's drive from San Bernardino.
This is Nina and Belinda beside the rose garden in the center courtyard of the mission.
Several lovely fountains were found at the mission. Many varieties of cactus and blooming flowers abounded.
Here are the ruins of the Great Stone Church. It was destroyed by an earthquake in 1812.
Here are Andrew, Lauren, Emma and Sadie in front of a giant pumpking and traditional Indian home.
