We had a wonderful visit to Santa Barbara for my niece’s wedding.
Doesn’t she look great? She and the groom were very relaxed and happy. It was a very fun event!
The next day, my sister-in-law and I headed off for a few days of exploring. Having never been in the area before, we found the scenery mesmerizing! (I was driving and the views were really distracting.)
We didn’t take that many pictures, but I think we got some of the highlights:
Hearst Castle
A beautiful view of the ocean scenery
Can you believe that water color? I live on the east coast and our water is NOT that beautiful teal.
Sea Lions in San Francisco
Redwoods in Muir Woods
And, of course, the Golden Gate Bridge (on a cloudy morning.)
Everyone likes to get their picture taken with the bridge.
I mean EVERYONE likes to get their picture taken with the bridge.
It was a great trip with family fun, extraordinary scenery, and interesting activities.

P.S. As part of revamping my blog I’ve dramatically increased the size of the images. What do you think? Do you like them or do they load too slowly?
