My trip to san juan capistrano mission!


My visit to Mission San Juan Capistrano. My friend Amy, and I decided to drive 1 hours south to explore the mission, take photos and see what kind of baskets the Navajo are creating...

little baskets inside a BIG basket, wee!
WeeeEeeeeEeeEeEeeEE!


The mission!
Pretty fountains everywhere, very fun to photograph!
me+the mission=fun!

on the drive home down Pacific Coast Highway, stumbled upon this pretty sunset!

My 35 mm film from that day:

votive candles from inside the mission church
candelabra inside the mission church

weird overexposed shot of pretty palm trees

Are there any cool places to take photos in Cerritos? Besides "fancy box cue"...?

    The sizes of different baskets and how much they vary is cool

    As cool as they look, those baskets also look extraordinarily complex D:

    The baskets all look very delightful and exquisite. (HAHAHA I'm British. Jolly good.)

    The coolest places in Cerritos would be Promenade, CTC, the mall, and the library. But ya other than that, Cerritos is a really boring place. You should go to the Pike in Downtown Long Beach. Oh and don't forget Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles.

IC screening.

Tonight was the screening, it was awesome, and really cool to see the roadies speak and ask questions after the film.  I bought a lot of goodies, and it feels good to support the movement. If you would like to do the same, visit the site, and get your own Invisible Children gear!  http://store.invisiblechildren.com/ I got these: the bag is rad because it is made by a ugandan person directly affected by the war, it creates a job or opportunity for that person to recover and create income for themselves more info here! Who Made Your Bag? from INVISIBLE CHILDREN on Vimeo . and this shirt came with a DVD of the documentary, as a part of the TRI donation program (where you donate $30 a month until the war is over in Africa!) Show your support :) -Miss G
