Sights from Mission San Juan Capistrano



















A crazy cactus tree.















Candles from inside the church.















Relic from near the altar of the church.















Margo in the foreground for perspective. This is apparantly the oldest building in CA. It was the original church sanctuary, but was destroyed in an earthquake in 1812. 50 or so native American Indian worshipers died. The 9 spaces in the wall held statues of saints.
