1/7 Santa Barbara, California

In our first port of call, we chose a walking tour of the city. We saw the Old Mission Santa Barbara, the Santa Barbara County Courthouse (hailed as "the most beautiful courthouse in America" according to our guide), and walked through the streets of the city. Santa Barbara is a beautiful little college town along the Pacific Ocean backed by the soaring Santa Ynez Mountains.
