Day 2 on our way to LA down the coast. We drove down to Santa Barbara, a very very posh area, and stayed there a few hours. We saw the palm tree-lined avenues, the rich people, but we were disappointed by the beaches- rocks and stones, shitty looking sand. The city was beautiful though, with old Spanish buildings everywhere. We took a guided tour of the Court House which was great, and then went up the tower to get a view of town. There was an anti-Obama protest going on and a wedding as well... the court House was a very popular place!
After Santa Barbara we went to Malibu: again, so disappointed by the beach!! The beaches here were bigger and the sand looked "ok", but God, it stunk! Like a fish market, yuck! Definitely not what we were expecting for the famous Southern California beaches!!
We got to Los Angeles late afternoon and went to an expensive but really cool hostel in Hollywood.
Dia 2 de nuestro viaje hacia Los Angeles por la costa. Manejamos a Santa Barbara, una zona muy muy paqueta, y nos quedamos ahi unas horas. Vimos las avenidas llenas de palmeras, la gente rica, pero nos decepcionaron las playas- rocas y piedras, arena una porqueria. Pero la ciudad era lindisima, con edificios espanioles antiguos por todos lados. Hicimos una visita guiada de la Corte que estuvo muy buena, y despues subimos a la torre para tener una vista de la ciudad. Habia una manifestacion en contra de Obama y un casamiento.... la Corte era un lugar muy popular!
Despues de Santa Barbara fuimos a Malibu: otra vez, una desilusion la playa!! Las playas aca eran mas grandes y la arena estaba "bien", pero por Dios, que baranda! Como un mercado de pescado, un asco! Definitivamente no era lo que nos esperabamos para ser las famosas playas del sur de California!
Llegamos a Los Angeles a la tarde y fuimos a un hostel caro pero muy copado en Hollywood.
felices pascuas besis
