After a pause of another year or so, I picked up the bicycle again and headed for the
two most southerly missions. 

Mission San Luis Rey de Francia, which is located near Oceanside, is an attractive,
well-maintained, and very large mission.  It's also the least memorable mission I
visited, for some reason. 

The one notable thing at San Luis Rey is the painting above, in which
Badass Jesus is in full superhero mode, kicking serious Roman butt.  I mean,
look at that thing!  He totally looks like he's swinging around on Spider-Man webs.
If you ever visit Mission San Luis Rey and see that someone has drawn
Iron Man energy bolts zapping out of Jesus' palms, you'll know who it was.
