Cabrillo has landed!

Journey back to Sept 28, 1542, when Cabrillo a Portuguese navigator sailing under the flag of Spain, landed here and named it San Miguel which now San Diego. Cabrillo and his men stayed here for 6 days, trading with the native Kumeyaay people living around the bay.

I went to the Cabrillo Monument Park to take some pictures after work and found out that their was a Cabrillo Festival event the whole week. The Kumeyaay natives were dancing at the Cabrillo Monument Park Friday before sunset and Sunday a re-enactment of Cabrillo’s landing began after lunch. I was here for 3 days just taking pictures.
