Santa Barbara

First Stop - Santa Barabara, California
Delighted our daughter Jessica came up from LA to spend the day with us before setting to sea on our journey. After a delicious breakfast, we explored the Court House - a working 1929 built Spanish Style Superior Court House with beautiful Moorish tiles, wrought iron works and wood beams. The mural room covered the history of Santa Barbara and the surrounding gardens host more than  300 weddings each year. As you ascend up the stairs, you reach the Bisno Schall Clock Gallery. It houses the restored Seth Thomas model 18 clock, one of the few left in America.

We then spent the afternoon at the Art Museum, loved the exhibit "Inside Out" how artists take what's inside them and express it outward as seen on the Santa Barbara Scene painted on used cardboard boxes. Stopped in at Sama Sama for an awesome lunch, Morris loved the chicken wings....and Morris doesnt like wings.
Since the ship can not dock we were Transported to and from the ship on a "Tender" which can about 200 people. Fun way to get back and forth to shore.
We are now ready for the Sea Journey!😁Читать далее
