De Pala Bells
A couple smaller missions were located on branches of El Camino Real. This one, Mission San Antonio De Pala, is located about 20 miles west of Mission San Luis Rey. One interesting story is that there's a small cactus growing on top of the bell tower. Apparently, it was planted there by a priest to symbolize how God's love could tame the desert... or something like that.
