Santa Barbara
The destination for the day was Carpinteria, Santa Barbara. We drove along route 1 passing through Malibu. We checked into the hotel then ventured out to downtown Santa Barbara. State Street was full of shops ranging from little boutiques to department stores including Macys and Saks. We stopped for a coffee but it took us a while as there was a black out because of the forest fires. Ash from the fires was pouring down on us as we walked up and down the main street.
We managed to get in some pool/jacuzzi time while at the hotel the next morning before jumping the bus into town to spend the day shopping and exploring. Happy hour was from 4 til 10 in most places and after a long day the margaritas went down really well. When we got back to the hotel that evening and broke the pool curfew having some jacuzzi time before heading off to bed. The next day was 4th July and I was looking forward to the fireworks.
