Overpriced green smoothie time!!! (it was really good)


Gotta pee!! Easily the worst public bathroom I've ever been in. Had to document this.


FRESH AIR. Suns going down! Gotta make moves!


Hanging out with the hip urban youths of Venice Beach


A delightful evening.


Made it back to the pier for sunset!

ATE TEH WHOLE drat THING OF BAKED ZITI Might have been more cheese than pasta.


Next Morning. Through Malibu!


Weather is pretty good today!


Santa Barbara Pier! Ate a bunch of fried seafood!!!


Wine Country for some mountain biking!


Rented this e-bike! It costs like $6000! I thought about stealing it. It's like riding a bike with cheat codes enabled.


HILL BOMB TIME

Another great day.


My room. No Country For Old Men vibes.


Wine tastin' type of morning!


FRESH ASPHALT YES


An entire ranch just for minitaure horses??? :vince:

A lot of coffee and pastries for breakfast. Had some lambchops which were amazing. Taco Bell on the trip home.

No In-N-Out surprisingly this time since that's my usual Road Trip Lunch

It was mid 60s daytime with nice crisp evenings+mornings mostly. Bit colder at night up north. Heated up on the drive home so it was really nice up in the mountains.

My sensitive parts are cradled by a very nice $80 Brooks bike saddle. :discourse:

I never get the last word, and it makes me very sad.
A bit let down by the lack of food pics other than the ziti but a good trip report nonetheless. Made me wish for a fleeting moment that I was out west enjoying the sun.

Nice pics....I walked up and down there a while ago, pretty much from Venice to Santa Monica and hung about to watch the sunset one day.

All day in the sun with no sunscreen and I was a little pink but ok overall.

The other day(and back in Australia) I did the edges and mowed for maybe an hour and a half, pretty similar temp to what it was when I was in LA, and came out with red stinging sunburn that still hurts 2 days later.

Wear your sunscreen if you come down here people.
