Santa Barbara and Santa Monica
After leaving Pismo, we headed to Solvang a beautiful Dutch village, just 45 minutes from Santa Barbara. It was founded by Danish immigrants back in 1911. It has wonderful architecture, an actual windmill - of course - and great coffee shops. We arrived mid morning in time to sample their cakes and coffee - our ritual!
Our next stop was Santa Barbara. This turned out to be one of our favourite places on our journey. It is a beautiful beach front city with mountains as the backdrop and a collection of Mediterranean style white buildings with red roof tiles. There are plenty of great restaurants, boutiques and activities to entertain. A beautiful main street stretches down to the beach front with it's old wooden pier and walking path.
Tumblr media
We took time to explore the old Courthouse which gave us a great view over the city and provided some relief from the hot weather. Then it was time for lunch in an alley cafe off the main street. We strolled down to the beach after lunch to enjoy the short pier walk and a very welcome ice cream. With weary legs, it was a real treat to find that we could board the free tram back to our car park. It was a short visit to this beautiful city, but such a lovely experience.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once back in our car, we made our way to Santa Monica to complete our 450 mile scenic trip. This was our final destination and our drop off point for our hire car. The route there was along the coast, passing Malibu beach and various other small beaches. As we approached Santa Monica, the traffic increased and a sense of chaos definitely crept in. Fortunately our Airbnb was located in a fairly quiet residential area which we were grateful for. We unloaded our bags and then headed straight out to drop the rental car off - just a ten minute drive away.
We were fortunate to have a couple of restaurants just round the corner and so dinner was at a local pizza place. As expected, it was not cheap, but it was good!
Our first full day was spent on a bike tour of Los Angeles. It was fantastic! We joined a small group with an entertaining guide who was great at informing and humouring us at the same time.
Tumblr media
We visited Beverley Hills - passing by various celebrities houses including the property where Michael Jackson sadly passed. This was an absolutely beautiful neighbourhood as to be expected. Manicured gardens, immaculate streets and palace style homes behind secure fencing and camouflaged with hedging and trees. We also had a quick stop at Belair neighbourhood.

We cycled to Venice Beach for dinner and sat near the beach watching the multitude of cyclists, skaters, walkers and other entertaining folk pass by on the boardwalk which stretches for miles along the beach.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A short way behind the beach, we were surprised to find the beautiful canals after which the area is named. A collection of quiet, still canals built in 1905 and lined with small properties adds a real beauty to this area. It was a complete contrast to the busy beach front.
Our last day was spent hiking to see the Hollywood sign and visiting the Griffith Observatory. We caught an Uber as the public transport was going to take an hour and a half. On arrival, we first ate lunch in the Observatory cafe. It was. a lot busier in the area than I expected.
Tumblr media
The Observatory is situated on the south facing slope of Mount Hollywood and is a popular film location. We didn't spend much time in the observatory as our main objective was to complete a hike and see the sign.
Tumblr media
The Hollywood sign was erected in 1923 as an advertisement ploy, but due to its popularity, it was decided to leave it there. It was replaced in 1978 with a steel structure to increase it's durability.
It was great hike and fantastic to see this area of Los Angeles. Despite the scorching hot weather and getting slightly lost, we really enjoyed the day and the opportunity to see this beautiful part of LOs Angeles.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In the evening, we got bus to downtown Santa Monica to stroll around and have dinner. We arrived around 6pm and were totally shocked by how busy the pier and the beach were. Santa Monica pier is a popular tourist attraction and they were definitely out in force. It wasn't the prettiest of sites and we didn't stay long. Crowds are not our scene and this area was not the Santa Monica I envisioned.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The pier is pretty iconic and I'm glad we actually visited. It was definitely a contrast to the hiking area earlier in the day. It was pleasant to just walk a little further along the coast for an evening stroll before heading back for the night.
And so our trip came to an end. A super journey along a beautiful coastline from San Francisco to Los Angeles, via a stunning National Park, with interesting and varied stops along the way. Great sights and fun experiences mixed with lots of singing in the car, interesting food stops, cool Airbnb's and a great travelling companion - all in all a very memorable trip.
