Trails, Towers and Tales

It is not like me to wake up early when I am given the luxury to sleep in.
However, I felt that my current proximity to the beach was a worthy reason to pull myself out of the marshmallowy king size feather duvet and explore a little.
So I decided to go for an early morning run.
Gotta love it when you can run from your hotel room to the beach in about 12 seconds!

Bubbles & Wine Are Always A Good Time

Santa Barbara is probably one of my favorite places to visit in California.
It has everything... Secluded beaches, incredible restaurants, and beautiful people.
However, I might be partially biased since I spent some of the best years of my life there in college at UCSB. 
Olé Olé Olé Go Gauchos!
I Digress.
Even if I wasn't a proud alumni, I know I would still rave about what a lovely place it is.
If you have been there before you know what I'm talking about, if you haven't I'll show you.
Nestled between the sea and the vineyards you'll find a beautiful resort called Bacara.

Unfortunately I didn't take this picture because I was driving, but this is the entrance. Not too shabby.
