San Juan Capistrano

Friends, originally uploaded by Chez VH.

The next leg of our trip took us down to the San Diego area where we stayed with my brother and his family (and my kids couldn't get enough of his three month old sweetheart, Leah) and met with a number of friends, including two from the local blogosphere.

After the hustle and bustle of graduation and family reunions, I had begun to wonder if we were crazy to plan so much into our trip and if it wouldn't have been better to go home earlier. This relaxing San Diego leg proved my worries wrong and recharged us for the rest of the trip.

So, do you recognize the little girl that Kate is tearing around the Mission grounds with? :)
