Life's a Beach


Although I've always romanticized the idea of going to the beach, I'm really not much of a beach person. It is always crowded and the beaches near NYC look toxic (I'm pretty certain the water at Jones Beach is sewage green... ) Perhaps, I simply haven't been to the right beach. Which is why I'm super excited we'll be spending the next couple of days in beautiful Santa Barbara visiting Ryan's high school buddy. Everyone is telling me that I will fall head over heels with the city and I can't wait to see it all for myself. If any of you have suggestions about great places to see/visit/eat, I'm all ears!

  1. Oh, how fun! I still haven't been up to SB, and my brother goes there for school! So...sorry I haven't had any recs! :) YES, be sure to enjoy the beaches on this coast! It's always gorgeous at sunset too :)

  2. So many suggestions! You must head up to Montecito and go for a hike along the San Ysidro trail, eat delicious Mexican food at La Super-Rica Tacqueria, and have an Earthquake cookie from Pierre LaFond Bakery! Need more suggestions??

  3. Oh, I do hope you go to the beach in SB -- it's really pretty there. I'm quite skeptical of beaches in the NYC/NJ area. As far as I'm concerned, they're great for the fall/winter/early spring, but you'll never find me sunning in a bathing suit there.
