Dana Point/Oceanside

Another lovely sail in 10-15 kts had us head further East towards this very affluent area. Stunning Spanish style houses on the beaches and hills made these Orange County cities striking. Wanting to see the area more, a friendly bus driver suggested a bus route along the water! However, we took an inland one not realizing each way was 2 ½ hours. Huntington Beach was lovely. Santa Ana ( a bit rundown) and later San Clemente had most road and building signs in Spanish. This reminded us of Quebec and its French postings. The 40th Anniversary of Hobie Cats gave us an exciting show of 100 Hobie Cats racing. Still with hot weather, we heard of possible Santa Anna winds (off the desert) coming later. They never did this time.
