I was so excited to visit the Central Coast of California and Santa Barbara for the first time! It was so fun and relaxing and I did not want to leave! It definitely to be a lot more laid-back from the hustle and bustle of the East Coast.
Fishing boats in Morro Bay. I’m so mesmerized by the amount of junk in this fishing boat. I wonder there’s even room for fish on the boat?
Morro Rock at sunset. Don’t you just love sunsets? Right when we were about to be seated at a restaurant, I took a look outside and saw the most gorgeous sunset, so I ran out of a restaurant and took a quick shot. I thought I could take more sunset pictures the next day, but it turned really foggy. Apparently foggy weather is not just in San Francisco!
Our hotel in Santa Barbara had a lagoon with all kinds of wildlife, and I stumbled across this litle turtle sunbathing. I was hiding behind a big bush so I wouldn’t scare him away.
Most palm trees grow straight, but these palm trees were really slanted!
We stopped on the side of the highway and watched the waves hit the rocks. I think I could have spent all day here!
The seagulls were flying really low and really close to me!
I wonder what this bird is thinking?

The beaches in Santa Barbara are special because they face south instead of west, so you don’t actually see the sunset behind the water. I never knew that!
