Mission San Luis Rey

This is the second in my California Missions series.  San Luis Rey was the second  mission founded by Junipero Serra, a Franciscan priest from Spain.  Twenty-one missions stretch along the Camino Real from San Diego to Sonoma.  This mission is five miles east of Oceanside and started in 1798.  I visited this beautiful white washed mission in June of this year.
