Capistrano (oct 14-23)

Chris' parents planned a most splendid trip for a weeks stay at a beachhouse in Capistrano.  They grew up coming here almost every Christmas, but we all agreed that if we came sooner in the year we might be able to enjoy some warmer weather.  Warm or not, sand and the sound of the waves crashing against the beach at night was all we needed to relax and forget our worries.  Totally chill and free to do whatever we pleased all week, was just the medicine our busy family needed to rejuvenate our souls.
