Humor on point. Glad you took your daughter to the Moxi museum, it is really cool for young kids. The Natural History museum is also nice for kids, with a small planetarium. Rory’s ice cream is another good ice cream place, in the Santa Barbara Market building.

@jameshiga8077 10 месяцев назад

Hi Chris. Thanks for the wonderful video. I always thought that Santa Barbara was a more upscale area. But it seems to be a pretty laid back area to visit. The food is amazing. I love that seafood market at the harbor. I envied you eating those fresh sea urchins. If I'm in the area. I will definitely check out the seafood for sure. Take care.

@YellowProductions 10 месяцев назад

Mmm. Hopefully you can get some Santa Barbara uni soon! 😀

@projectdelta50 2 месяца назад

For that Saturday morning fresh seafood, its not ALMOST fresh off the boat, its actually directly off the boat. We arrive there about 3am and takes us a couple hours to get things setup. You wont get any fresher anywhere in the world. - A Commercial Crabber in the area. Also McConnells flagship spot was on mission street, they only moved downtown recently.

@YellowProductions 2 месяца назад

Right on projectdelta! No comment about "almost" fresh off the boat is it would be kind of cool to have a pier where the seafood could actually be sold from the boat :)

Local here. I know you are from San Diego because you skipped the biggest segment of our local food diet; Mexican Food. So people not from So-cal, may want to experience when visiting (I get that the seafood is more local) Great Video!! I have seen all of the things you mentioned, but it was amazing that you came when you could experience them all for one video.

@YellowProductions 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the addition of Mexican Food as something to eat. I agree 😀

@landporte1593 10 месяцев назад

There's so much to do in Santa Barbara. You missed showing the turtle fountain and hidden passages in the shopping/theater districts. You definitely could spend another day there. We did many things on our trips too. So much to cover there. From the train depot, art museum, museum of natural history, the Santa Barbara botanical gardens, Mission Rose Gardens, the orchid nurseries, the Santa Barbara historical museum, and the free karpeles manuscript Library/museum, the adobe, carriage museum. Ive visited Santa Barbara 4 times. The Four Seasons used to have an amazing Christmas holiday lobby display, but it's been closed for awhile. Your video was insightful too and covered a lot, but you would probably need to stay a week in Santa Barbara to see everything..did you go to the Sacred place in summerland?

@YellowProductions 10 месяцев назад

Thanks. We definitely could have spent a few more nights. This was all we could capture in a 2 night trip 😀

@landporte1593 10 месяцев назад

Have you been to the Sacred space yet? It's a gift store with an enchanted garden that makes you feel like you are in Thailand or Bali. Hope you can/were able to visit.

I was getting gas and looking for a place to park my RV for a minute. it was 3 am so I am tired. every single person I talk to has some sort of opinion about politics and how the world works and they are very vocal about it ( from the homeless person to the gas attendant and the security guard that kick me out of the parking lot.)
