We had the largest ever from Ventura, including 7 students from various Ventura schools who are all in the Ventura Mission Choir.

We are planning another trip the end of Feb/ early March to see the whale migration.

We also plan to return again in October of 2024! This is when Loreta celebrates the founding of their city.
