Santa Barbara

 I decided to drive from Carlsbad to Santa Barbara for the weekend. The drive was picturesque, despite the traffic through LA & Hollywood. It was an amazing place with amazing friends. I felt like a rich Hollywood star while having drinks at The Biltmore. (Yes, the Kardashian sisters recently vacationed there) I had the most heavenly cupcake my lips ever touched. If you are ever in the area go to Whodidily Cupcakes in Montecito. We then had to go down to the beach to walk off our cupcake. We became the paparazzi in front of Ty Warner's house. He is the founder of Ty, Inc. You know, the company that distributes the  Beanie Babies. Let's just say his house isn't small.  Overall, Santa Barbara rates high on my lists of vacation spots, but just make sure you bring your trust fund money. This place caters to the riches.
