Santa Barbara

Mason and I took a fun day trip to Santa Barbara, and it went pretty well, despite Mase's car breaking down. Santa Barbara is America's Riviera and it's beautiful. The Spanish style  architecture is beautiful and the history is fascinating. ​
Here are some little hidden and not so hidden gems you should visit on your next Santa Barbara Trip:

Stearn's Wharf

Stearns Wharf is a true Santa Barbara gem. Everything is good in my book, except there's a no heel rule. So to my fellow heel wearers, bring your flats and wedges. There's restaurants, shops, and beautiful lookout points.

The Beach

Butterfly Beach and the Beach by the Wharf are my favorite picks.

Hotel Milo

Hotel Milo is incredibly beautiful, and has everything. It's pet friendly and very well up-kept. Bike-rentals, breakfast, fireplace, courtyard, and pool use are provided to guests. 

State Street and Downtown

Downtown  Santa Barbara has farmers markets, gift shops, and souvenirs all around. Take a bike and cruise around.
