Now we are in Dana Point South of Los Angeles in Orange County. It was a fair old drive here in the Friday evening rush hour from Santa Barbera where we spent a night enjoying the coast and the annual Old Spanish Fiesta now in its 80th+ year (viva la fiesta). We seem to have a habit of stumbling on fiestas when on holiday and this was pretty impressive affair. We also slotted in some historical diversion with a trip to the best Mission in California allegedly. Now we are preparing for the onslaught of Universal Studios, Disneyland, Hollywood and SeaWorld San Diego. Fortunately we are staying in a beautiful and quiet place just by the sea that is miles away from the unreal world of theme parks and we had time for a swim in the sea and the nearby pool as well as a tour of the harbour full of million dollar yachts. Our written journal is coming along nicely with some interesting new clippings from the local papers - there are some wacky stories to enjoy.
