The trolley ride was the funnest
At Nordstrom's
Art Museum
Front of our Bungalow
Pudding and Hot chocolat party
Enrique took the bird picture
It was so much fun to get away to somewhere we haven't been before. The road trip was fun cuz we had every snack you can think of and lots of movies. It only took 2 and half hours to get there. Really pretty. We passed the town Summerland where that show was taped. No idea it was a town. And if you are homeless Santa Barbara is the place for you. They treat homeless like royalty. Even Nordstrom will give them food and coffee. It is totally a small, hippy type town. But a RICH hippy town. Like the hippys finally got a job. And don't mention Walmart or you will be stoned to death. Oh and I promise I fed my kids they just didn't have Pringles.
The funnest thing we did was ride the trolley for 25 cents up and down from downtown to the beach and back. Again giving the homeless free rides. The trolley stopped right in front of the Art Museum which was free that day. That was fun. The kids actually were interested at looking at the pictures and of course the kids gallery. I think Enrique's favorite thing was staking out his spot on the bed at the hotel and watching shows with just boxers and spiderman slippers.
Nordstrom's was beautiful. They just redid the restaurant. The food was awesome cuz my hubby made it otherwise I would just stick with Marketplace or Bistro. The classic cafe is more of a simple menu which is what this one was.
It was also cold and no sun. But thats ok I was wanting that weather. Our pudding and hot chocolate picnic was fun. That was Kaelei's idea. Kaelei was hoping the hotel was our new house. She didn't want to go home. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!!

That looks like TONS of fun... and I LOVE hot chocolate, so I would join you for a hot chocolate party anytime!!
Santa Barbara doesn't treat the homeless like royalty. There are numerous cases of the homeless being beaten up, mugged, torched, attacked, etc. from folks who have no compassion at all toward fellow human beings. Jesus didn't have a home, either. Buddha didn't have a home. If you follow the teachings of either those two prophets, you should feel only compassion for the homeless.
Santa Barbara isn't a town of hippies, either. We're just progressive and understand the connection between a healthy environment and a healthy populace. We also understand there is more to life than to spend money on worthless plastic stuff made by kids in some Chinese factory.
Wal-Mart is destroying our country from within. We shouldn't be supporting those who wish our Democracy and country ill.
Looks like you had fun! Love getting pictures of the kids. Who's cookie jill? Lynn
