Quick entry today. Sunday went to services at the Mission Basilica of San Juan Capistrano, which is a 20 year old recreation of the original Spanish mission church that was built at a nearby site and collapsed in an earthquake. A basilica is sort of half way between a regular church and a cathedral in size and prominance. Awesome artwork, and the place was packed.

LegoLand! Every childhood playtime fantasy can be relived! It’s the one amusement park where the parents can have just as much fun as the kids. I think I had more fun here than at Disneyworld. P bumped into an old co-worker from when she worked for the City. Visited the Carlsbad Premium Outlets in search of a replacement safety blanket for the baby, but no luck – the discriminating tastes of the baby easily discerned the difference between the real thing and fakes. Dinner at Ruby’s, a 50’s diner recreation that had American Kobe beef on the menu. Go figure.

On the road to San Francisco, hopefully getting there by the end of the day today.
