After 3000 Miles - Newport Beach and Santa Barbara...

...Our last stop before driving up further North on the famous U.S. Route 101 was Newport Beach. Most of you will know this place from the teen drama series O.C. California. It is also a calm place with a lot of yacht clubs and very nice beaches.

Santa Barbara was next - it is till now one of my favorite places on the west coast. The city itself is very beautiful, not too big and there is everything what you need. We spent there yesterday evening and today nearly all the day.

Palm trees - they are everywhere in the city - the city itself is very green - just nice.
