California

April 2000

Day 3

Morning started with a drive up the Pacific Coast Highway. Looking at the Pacific Ocean, we saw a couple of dolphins and (we think) a whale, although we were too far for a good view.

After an hour and a half, we got to the Santa Barbara Mission.
Then lunch in Santa Barbara.
SB is a very cute place, with lots of small buildings with orange tile roofs, and a free observation deck on the fourth floor clocktower of the courthouse.
 
 
Landscape pictures never come out well...
Up the San Marcos Path, through the Santa Barbara Mountains, 40 min to Solvang, a Scandinavian town with a tourist trap.
 
 
 
2 hours later, we arrive at San Simeon for the night. Called Hal, left a message about my arrival in SF.
