The Anza Expedition (National Park Service Film)
In 1776, a multi-ethnic group of families completed an epic, 1900-mile journey at the mouth of San Francisco Bay. These 240 men, women, and children -- the first Spanish settlers to come overland into California -- forged a path through history and laid a cultural foundation for the American West.
Juan Bautista de Anza led the expedition from present-day Sonora, Mexico, through Arizona, and north along the California coast to establish the presidio and mission of San Francisco. The colonists were aided in their journey by Native American communities that would be forever changed by their arrival. Today, our nation commemorates the legacy of the Anza expedition through the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail.
This film was released in 2012 and is a production of the National Park Service and Environmental Exchange. For more information, visit nps.gov/juba

????“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16 KJV
????The Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail is a 1,210-mile (1,950 km) National Park Service unit in the United States National Historic Trail and National Millennium Trail programs. The trail route extends from Nogales on the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona, through the California desert and coastal areas in Southern California and the Central Coast region to San Francisco.
The Trail commemorates the 1775–1776 land route that Spanish commander Juan Bautista de Anza took from the Sonora y Sinaloa Province of New Spain in Colonial Mexico through to Las Californias Province. The goal of the 1775–1776 trip was to establish a mission and presidio on the San Francisco Bay. The trail was an attempt to ease the course of Spanish colonization of California by establishing a major land route north for many to follow. It was used for about five years before being closed by the Quechan (Yuma) Indians in 1781 and kept closed for the next 40 years.????

Juan Bautista de Anza Historic Trail - Marana, AZ
In 1775, Juan Bautista de Anza, Captain of the Presidio of Tubac led an expedition north along the Santa Cruz River to found the city of San Francisco. This is a very small section of that trail located in Marana, Arizona.
The body of water is currently known as Lake Marana by the locals. It is actually a former borrow pit from the construction of I-10 at the north end of Continental Ranch that has filled with water, forming a lake of sorts. The lake has attracted a large number of birds to the area. The pit itself is part of the FEMA Floodplain. Many residents would like to see this become a permanent fixture in their neighborhood.

A House To Bridge Two Cultures - Castro Breen Video
A House to Bridge Two Cultures (5:50 sec) overviews life in San Juan Bautista in the 1840s that centered on the mission and the plaza. Though isolated from Mexico and the United States, San Juan Bautista was increasingly connected to a growing trade at the intersection of the El Camino Real and Pacheco Pass that linked the coast with the Great Central Valley.
The adobe (now on the Historic Register) was the home of Modesta and Jose Antonio (the Prefect of San Juan Bautista, would later become Governor of Mexican California) Castro. He generously offered the penniless Margaret & Patrick Breen (of the Donner Party) family shelter in his adobe.
Soon after, the Breen's eldest son left home to seek his fortune in the newly discovered gold fields. John struck it rich and returned with enough gold to purchase the adobe and 400 acres of land.
Two central California-region families, (one Mexican, the other Irish Catholic Immigrants) personal experiences parallels the cultural California changes (1839 - late 1800s).
The 6-minute video produced by Jim Kelty for BANG! Creative is shown at the Castro-Breen Adobe Visitor Center, San Juan Bautista SHP.
Old San Juan, Puerto Rico - Downtown Colonial Architecture HD (2013)
San Juan, officially Municipio de la Ciudad Capital San Juan Bautista (Municipality of the Capital City, Saint John the Baptist), is the capital and most populous municipality in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, an unincorporated territory of the United States. As of the 2010 census, it had a population of 395,326 making it the 46th-largest city under the jurisdiction of the United States. San Juan was founded by Spanish colonists in 1521, who called it Ciudad de Puerto Rico (Rich Port City). Puerto Rico's capital is the second oldest European-established capital city in the Americas, after Santo Domingo, in the Dominican Republic. Several historical buildings are located in San Juan; among the most notable are the city's former defensive forts, Fort San Felipe del Morro and Fort San Cristóbal, and La Fortaleza, the oldest executive mansion in continuous use in the Americas.
Today, San Juan is one of Puerto Rico's most important seaports, and is the island's manufacturing[citation needed], financial, cultural, and tourism center. The population of the Metropolitan Statistical Area, including San Juan and the municipalities of Bayamón, Guaynabo, Cataño, Canóvanas, Caguas, Toa Alta, Toa Baja, Carolina and Trujillo Alto, is about 2 million inhabitants; thus, about half the population of Puerto Rico now lives and works in this area. San Juan is also a principal city of the San Juan-Caguas-Fajardo Combined Statistical Area. The city has been the host of numerous important events within the sports community, including the 1979 Pan American Games, 1966 Central American and Caribbean Games, events of the 2006, 2009 and 2013 World Baseball Classics, the Caribbean Series and the Special Olympics and MLB San Juan Series in 2010.
San Juan is cataloged as a global city, according to the Globalization and World Cities Research Network studies from the Loughborough University in London. Which classifies San Juan as Beta - city.

Celebrating the Juan Bautista de Anza National Historic Trail at Painted Rock Petroglyph Site
Juan Bautista de Anza's expedition passed by this magnificent rock art site in 1776 while traveling to California. The petroglyphs at this site are thought to have been made by the ancient Patayan and Hohokam people over a thousand years ago. Many archaeologists believe the site marks a trail that was used by Native Americans for thousands of years and that Juan Bautista de Anza's expedition followed this ancient trail rather than blazing a new one.
In later years the Mormon Battalion, Overland Stage and California 49ers used the same route to travel to California.

This drive begins in Weaverville, California, and follows Route 299 to the end at US Highway 101. Just before I got to the end, I turned off on a road that led to the local Tourist Information Center. Sorry about all the rain -- I'm sure this is a much prettier drive in better weather.

San Diego 2, California Tour Collage Video - youtube.com/tanvideo11
Powered by - The original inhabitants of the region are now known as the San Dieguito and La Jolla people.The area of San Diego has been inhabited by the Kumeyaay people. The first European to visit the region was Portuguese-born explorer Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo sailing under the flag of Castile. Sailing his flagship San Salvador from Navidad, New Spain, Cabrillo claimed the bay for the Spanish Empire in 1542 and named the site 'San Miguel'. In November 1602, Sebastián Vizcaíno was sent to map the California coast. Arriving on his flagship San Diego, Vizcaíno surveyed the harbor and what are now Mission Bay and Point Loma and named the area for the Catholic Saint Didacus, a Spaniard more commonly known as San Diego de Alcalá. On November 12, 1602, the first Christian religious service of record in Alta California was conducted by Friar Antonio de la Ascensión, a member of Vizcaíno's expedition, to celebrate the feast day of San Diego.
In May 1769, Gaspar de Portolà established the Fort Presidio of San Diego on a hill near the San Diego River. In July of the same year, Mission San Diego de Alcalá was founded by Franciscan friars under Father Junípero Serra. By 1797, the mission boasted the largest native population in Alta California, with over 1,400 neophytes living in and around the mission proper. Mission San Diego was the southern anchor in California of the historic mission trail El Camino Real. Both the Presidio and the Mission are National Historic Landmarks.
In 1821, Mexico won its independence from Spain, and San Diego became part of the Mexican state of Alta California. The fort on Presidio Hill was gradually abandoned, while the town of San Diego grew up on the level land below Presidio Hill. The Mission was secularized by the Mexican government, and most of the Mission lands were distributed to wealthy Californio settlers.
