Started the day traveling to Mission Viejo. We took the back way around through Trabucu Canyon and Robinson ranch. The road was like a tunnel with canopy of oaks and sycamores hanging over the road.

| Rancho Santa Margarita |
We thought we we out in the middle of nowhere, but after we took the road that brought us up and over a winding hill, we turned the corner and there was a massive planned community with supermarkets, condo complexes etc! It was shocking! This is the community of Rancho Santa Margarita.

| Lake Mission Viejo |
We drove around there for a while and the went to Mission Viejo (just down the road). We stopped in a realtors office looking for rentals. He gave a us a few printouts and we proceeded to find the addresses that we on the listing using the GPS om my Xoom. This is a great way to see the area, driving through developments, shopping complexes, condo complexes, etc. With the Xoom we don't get lost.
Mission Viejo is broken up into a few communities each with their own amenities and fees. We though the nicest was at lake Mission Viejo.We also drove around Alisa Viejo. Both communities we very nice, clean and safe. But there was a lot of traffic. Where did all these people come from?

| Double Tree Inn and Dana Point |

| Dana Point Harbor |
We were getting tired and decided to head to Dana Point/Capistrano Beach again for the evening. We chose the Double Tree Inn to stay the night. They sure do add one the fees. $22 for parking where you park yourself or us the Valet, plus local taxes, state taxes etc.
It is right across the road from the beach and the Doheny State Park Campground. After checking in, we went out for dinner at the Harbor Grille Seafood Restaurant. After Dinner we decided to call it a day.
