Dana Point, CA
Capistrano Beach, CA -
4/29/2008I live in the small township of Capistrano Beach, which is to the south of Dana Point, California. We live in paradise. The weather is mild, warm with an ocean breeze most of the time, the most severe winter weather we get is rain. We live by the sea and can catch a glimps of it on our way to the market, the post office or on our way to work. Our middle school and elementary school have ocean views from the playgrounds. The beaches are long stetches of sand where we can occasionally spot dolphins playing in the surf. The homes are eclectic, mansions sitting next door to humble beach cottages. Our streets vary from wide tree lined with set-back sidewalks, to so narrow you must pull to the side and pause to let your neighbor pass going in the opposite direction. Although we are near cities that host magnificent resorts and upscale aminities, Capistrano Beach is still caught in the old by-gone days when things moved slower and this was just far enough away from the city to be a little bit country.
