our first night in cali

rainbow skies The flight was my usual miserable ear thing — I hate that, because I think I’m going to die. But some of the views were amazing. We arrived in Santa Barbara and walked across the tarmac from the plane, where they unloaded our luggage by hand where you just walk over and take it. That works way better than the usual luggage carousel system.

We drove around downtown Santa Barbara and then had dinner at Moby Dick on the Santa Barbara pier. Great shrimp and bread! And I tried clam chowder and liked it! (I have thought it was repulsive my entire life. We even saw the owner, a salty old man, standing right in front of the cardboard cutout of himself in the front entrance. Cool!
