It certainly wasn&#8217;t cold though, as the temperatures were consistently clearly above +20C during the day. At night the temperature dropped to around +16C. We did not stay in Santa Barbara itself, but in a small town near it called Carpinteria. We had spotted this apartment on Airbnb, after first checking out what Booking.com had to offer, and finding it really expensive. Our accommodation this time was a small caravan in the backyard of the owners&#8217; house. There were also two cats, two dogs, two horses and chicken in the yard. The chicken laid their eggs daily, so we could pick up fresh eggs from the henhouse if we wanted. It was also possible to pet or feed the other animals. Needless to say, this was a place the kids loved.<\/p><p>As there were no real &#8220;must see&#8221; things in Santa Barbara, we started the morning in a relaxed way. We slept relatively late and had breakfast outside. Afterwards, the kids went to give the horses carrots and practiced lassoing. Jaana continued to write the blog, and Marko took care of writing down the travel budget. It was well after noon when we left by car for Santa Barbara.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-28f9d9c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"28f9d9c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-9666fc0\" data-id=\"9666fc0\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f754ba4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f754ba4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"20240623_131918\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjMzMiwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3RyYXZlbHRhbGVzLmFob3Qub25saW5lXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDI0XC8wNlwvMjAyNDA2MjNfMTMxOTE4LXNjYWxlZC5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6332\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_131918-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The owners of the house have three small Airstream caravans in their backyard, each fenced off into its own pen.

In one direction we could have walked it with the kids, but the round trip might have been a bit too long.<\/p><p>The city centre was nothing like we had imagined it to be. All the houses were low-rise, two-storey at most, and the area had a nice small-town feel. Santa Barbara is not quite a small town, however, with a population of just over 83 000. We got the car into the garage and started walking down the main street towards the beach. The main street was reserved for cyclists and walkers only. Cyclists rode on the &#8220;driveway&#8221; and pedestrians on the sidewalks on either side of it. There were wooden chairs here and there along the cycle lane, where you could sit and watch the goings-on in the area if you wanted to.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-dcea376 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"dcea376\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-48cd2a8\" data-id=\"48cd2a8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-934c832 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"934c832\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"20240623_164111\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjMzNSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3RyYXZlbHRhbGVzLmFob3Qub25saW5lXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDI0XC8wNlwvMjAyNDA2MjNfMTY0MTExLXNjYWxlZC5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6335\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240623_164111-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">This is where the old town's walking\/cycling route begins.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0add53e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0add53e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5d7ae1c\" data-id=\"5d7ae1c\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-daea786 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"daea786\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The street was mainly lined with small clothes shops and various restaurants.

Unfortunately, we didn&#8217;t meet any celebrities on this trip, or at least we didn&#8217;t recognise any.<\/p><p>We had an early dinner at an Indian restaurant.

bragging rights! It looked like the people had taken almost all their belongings with them. A whole range of kitchen utensils, from a grease cooker to a waffle iron, was often on display in front of the caravans. Outside, huge canopies were erected in front of the caravans, under which a dining table with tablecloths and flowers was set up. Some caravans were completely surrounded by portable fencing elements, so that a dog could run free in front of the caravan. Of course, there were also huge sacks of firewood, bicycles, small scooters for the children, a flagpole with flags and, of course, outdoor lights to hang on trees, bushes and the caravan. One couple also brought their own illuminated palm tree, because that is of course essential when camping! With this amount of stuff, you probably don&#8217;t want to change camping places very often.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1d23948 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1d23948\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bfde6e2\" data-id=\"bfde6e2\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c62167 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"3c62167\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"20240624_171933\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjQzNywidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3RyYXZlbHRhbGVzLmFob3Qub25saW5lXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDI0XC8wNlwvMjAyNDA2MjRfMTcxOTMzLXNjYWxlZC5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6437\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_171933-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Maybe it is atmospheric to barbecue here in the shade of the palm tree in the evening.<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-f03c1b4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"f03c1b4\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-cee8cbf\" data-id=\"cee8cbf\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-744f634 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"744f634\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The seascapes and caravans ended up being the only things to photograph. The path leading to the seal colony came to a surprising dead end, so we had to turn back. We saw from the map that the beach could also be reached by car, so after a combined lunch and dinner we decided to visit the beach by car. This time we bought our food from a small hot dog stand on the beach. Risto had a hot dog, but the rest of us had tacos and burgers. There was a tempting-sounding chili burger on the menu, so Jaana decided to try it. We also ordered the equally delicious sounding chilli cheese fries. We thought that chilli meant chilli as a spice, but when we got the food, it turned out that the chilli was actually a spicy minced meat sauce. It was good too, but it&#8217;s not often you get to eat a burger with a beef patty covered with ground beef sauce.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ffc321e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ffc321e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b416a72\" data-id=\"b416a72\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9d93227 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"9d93227\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"20240624_160144\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjQzNCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3RyYXZlbHRhbGVzLmFob3Qub25saW5lXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDI0XC8wNlwvMjAyNDA2MjRfMTYwMTQ0LXNjYWxlZC5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6434\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_160144-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">The Spot in the background was apparently the best (and only) hot dog stand on the beach.

We managed to cram four backpacks into three, saving the cost of one piece of luggage. Our United Airlines tickets to Hawaii didn&#8217;t include any checked in luggage, and each bag had to be paid for separately.<\/p><p>One of the owners, Nan, had also returned home from work, and we stayed to chat with her in the courtyard. She told us that the faint smell of marijuana wafting through the area was indeed marijuana. A couple of years ago, its cultivation was legalised, and immediately some of the flower farms in the area switched to growing marijuana. It was apparently very profitable at first, but with all the taxes and fees involved, legal cultivation is no longer very profitable. The most amusing thing to us was the fee that growers pay to local schools. When marijuana cultivation started in Carpinteria, one of the conditions was that growers had to support local schools with a certain monthly amount of their drug money. At the same time, however, schools lecture about the harmful effects of drugs. A bit of an odd combination!<\/p><p>In the evening, the children went to the main house to see if they could get a plaster for Risto&#8217;s hands. The young man had practised lassoing so hard that his palms had big blisters. We adults stayed in the caravan to sit around, because we were going to roast marshmallows again. However, time passed and the kids hadn&#8217;t come back. For a moment we wondered if they had gone knocking on the right door, but then after twenty minutes the children finally came running back carrying a small bag of chocolates. It turned out that the children had stayed to chat with the owners of the place. The children had told them that we were roasting marshmallows again. Nan had dug out some chocolate from the cupboard and instructed the kids on how to make a proper S&#8217;more treat. First, a piece of chocolate is put on top of a cookie, and then it is topped with a roasted marshmallow. We should have put another cookie on top, but since we were so short on cookies, we ate the S&#8217;mores with one cookie. They were good either way!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1a1e487 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1a1e487\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-c311135\" data-id=\"c311135\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cdb6d16 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"cdb6d16\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-scaled.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"20240624_203542\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6NjQzOSwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL3RyYXZlbHRhbGVzLmFob3Qub25saW5lXC93cC1jb250ZW50XC91cGxvYWRzXC8yMDI0XC8wNlwvMjAyNDA2MjRfMjAzNTQyLXNjYWxlZC5qcGcifQ%3D%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6439\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/traveltales.ahot.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240624_203542-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Everyone loved the S'mores.

Of course, this was only a good thing for Marko, who was beginning to feel a bit of separation anxiety from his BMW baby. When our car was finally handed over to its original owner, Sixt car rental, we took their shuttle bus to the airport. There we did our best to pass the time, as we were now there well before our flight left. United flights departed from Terminal 7, which was not very large.
