an interesting sitting area near the creek and dam that was created by the missionaries:

Not sure what happened here but it is really cool looking!



This is the McDonalds I couldn't find. Can you see why?



My favorite beach from the hills above:





The mountains in the background are the Channel Islands





There is a restaurant on the beach and a dog park.



a nice walk thru the park there:

The wild surf in Ventura:

So glad you had a good time. Those pictures are great.

Nice. Thanks for sharing.

Nice photo album! I'd love to go back amd explore SB. I've been through and once for a meeting, but never got to explore the area. Did you see many ships off shore?
Velda

No ships but 4 oil rigs. The ships might go on the other side of the Channel Islands. SB faces south so they may bypass that area. The fact that SB faces south and has the islands out in front, keeps the surf there fairly calm so it is safer for swimming with less rip tides.

Beautiful pictures!! I so miss living near the ocean and frequently wish I had stayed. Then I think of the traffic and the cost of living!!
Glad you had a good birthday weekend.

Great pics. Thanks for sharing. I need to get up there sometime.

Lovely photos, Barbie!

Thank you for taking us along on your trip.

Looks like your motel was in a great location - how did you know?

Anne

I stayed at that motel 10 years ago because it was the least expensive place by the beach. There is a Motel 6 right behind this place that is actually more expensive. This one was pretty outdated but clean when I was there before but they have updated it nicely since then. I will stay there again in the future.

I can see why you like it there, Barbie. Great pictures!

Barbie, great pictures. Thanks for sharing
