Santa Barbara
About
Santa Barbara, about 1.5–2 hours northwest of LA between the mountains and the sea, is all white walls and red tile roofs in Spanish Colonial Revival style. The County Courthouse clock tower looks out over the city; the Mission, State Street and Stearns Wharf are the highlights, with tasting rooms in the Funk Zone. Amtrak's coast line runs here, too.
Jasmine says
Spanish tile roofs, the coastline,
and a city scale made for slowing down.
Stroll State Street,
take a look at the Old Mission,
have a drink in the Funk Zone:
one day is just right, and an overnight makes it complete.
Spanish architecture, a coastline and a city scaled for slowing down.
