As we continued along our walking tour of Santa Barbara I snapped these two scenic pictures and also a pretty pink flower that I spotted on a bush. My stomach started to rumble and we both decided that we would be needing lunch pretty soon. So we walked out of Laguna Creek and past Chase Palm Park back out towards State Street.

El Torito is a franchise or chain restaurant and we really enjoyed the meal that we had at the El Torito in Los Angeles. When you order the guacamole and tortilla chips appetizer at El Torito Mexican Restaurant the server brings out a fresh avocado and makes the guacamole right in front of your table.

The first picture in this row came out really well and my girlfriend has it hanging on her wall. I sent the picture to Wal-Mart using their website and had them blow up the digital image to a 16" by 20" poster size. We then later purchased a black frame with white matte paper from Michael's arts and crafts store in Miami. In that picture you can also see once again the lighthouse that is now Rusty's Pizza Parlor.

Here are just some more pictures of Santa Barbara. We kept walking further East away from Santa Barbara beach. The first picture is of a sign pointing towards the PCH 101 highway next to a Big Dog Clothing store. The third image in this row is of the Enterprise Fish Co. We didn't go check out the Enterprise Fish Company but I'm guessing it's a restaurant.

Every town and city has it's own hot spot or main strip and Santa Barbara is no exception. In the first picture you'll see part of the State Street strip that is lined with small stores, upscale restaurants, and historic buildings.
