When the swallows come back to Capistrano. . .

. . .they have the good sense to do it in March.  And they fly.   They don't attempt to drive down as we just did on a Saturday in August where they will find 4,689,312 other automobiles and no place at all to park.  So we didn't loiter about the old mission or visit the Serra Chapel or the new basilica or have lunch at the wonderful El Adobe.

We came home and had lunch at the Fish Company in Los Al.  Our annual celebration of St Bartholomew's Day didn't work out as planned but I can recommend the swordfish at the Fish Company.
