Mission Impossible

Standard

Disc golfing, driving, mission and movies!  We couldn’t leave San Diego without a little disc golf at Balboa Park.  Although we had to pay a fee for playing it was a good course and Carter and Brayden played well especially the last couple holes.  As is typical, unfortunately, there was a lot of smoking, foul talking, drinking, smelly guys:(. After disc golfing we drove a couple hours to our next destination.  We should not have trusted our gps because it took us the long way around a lake and over a curvy mountain road an extra hour.  Our destination was the mission San Juan Capistrano, the jewel of the missions.  The grounds were beautiful and the audio tour was extremely insightful.  We especially enjoyed the story about the bells and how they were used to signal many different things in the town.  After leaving the mission, we headed towards Ventura but were caught in traffic on the 405. We decided to stop and see a movie instead of contending with the traffic.  We saw “Mirror, Mirror”.  We really liked it but it was a little different than the Disney version.  Here is our favorite quote from the movie, “We all have magic within us but few discover it and use it wisely”.  We arrived late to our hotel to a disgusting smell.  When we asked at the desk about the smell they said it was the local agriculture.  We had a good nights sleep regardless. Despite the long curvy roads, traffic and smell we all had a good.
