We visited the Santa Barbara Mission. It is called the Queen of the Missions because of its graceful beauty.
There is a beautiful rose garden in front of the mission.
Father Junipero Serra was in charge of the California missions. Santa Barbara was the tenth mission and was established in 1786.
Breanne and Holly were padres in this photo op!
The Sacred Garden...
The cemetery has about 4,000 Chumash Indians and Spanish Padres are buried here.
One of the most famous is Juana Maria, the Chumash Indian who was left alone on San Nicolas Island for 18 years. The book, Island of The Blue Dolphins, was written about her life.
The fountain was built in 1808.
The aqueduct came two miles up from the mountain creeks.
The Chumash Indians built this basin in front of the mission to wash their clothes.
