Mission Wells Historical Lot is located immediately across the street from Heritage Park.   I dag camperede vi ved Oceanside's Heritage Park, som var hyggelig, omend lige lovlig "kitsch" efter min smag. Today we day camped at Oceanside's Heritage Park, which was charming, although a bit kitschy for my taste.         Pavillionen er en af de bygninger her, der ikke er specielt gamle eller autentiske, men alligevel er charmerende. The pavillion is one of the buildings here which are not particularly old or authentic, but it adds to the atmosphere all the same.     Hestestalden er heller ikke en "ægte" historisk bygning, men er til gengæld fuld af vogne og antikke genstande. The livery is not a "real" historical building either, but makes up for it by being full of wagons and antique artifacts.

Two things I just loved: The beautiful old Singer sewer, and the comfy chair with the "Mama-Ella-upholstery."

Lige over for Heritage Park ligger Mission Wells Historical Lot, en gammel missionshave, som indeholder resterne af en brønd, der i sin tid blev brugt af Mission San Luis Rey. Haven, som i gamle dage var betydeligt større, var oprindelig omringet af en to meter høj adobe-mur, der holdt løstgående kvæg ude. Just across from Heritage Park lies the Mission Wells Historical Lot, an old mission garden, which houses the remains of a well that was once used by Mission San Luis Rey. The garden, which in its time was considerably larger, was originally surrounded by a 7-foot tall adobe wall that served to keep out loose cattle.

Day Camping/Boondocking Information Heritage Park Village is a great spot for day camping. The parking lot adjacent to Heritage Park Village is only open on Sundays, but there are a few dozen spaces at the entrance along the road with plenty of space for small or medium sized RVs. There are no signs specifically governing boondocking or overnight parking, but Oceanside allows 72 hour parking of RVs on public streets, and so far legislative attempts to decrease this to 24 hours have been rejected by the city council.
