Santa Paula

2016 Out West, California, Road Trip

The route from San Luis Obispo to Santa Paula took us through stunning scenery and along gorgeous beaches. 

Our plan had been to stay ay Hobson Beach but no electric sites were available and with plans to be away from the T@B for several hours tomorrow we deferred on the dry camping option. Instead we called the Santa Paula KOA. We were lucky that that besides tonight they still had an opening for Friday night. As we headed away from Hobson we were amazed by the huge number of large RVs set up for dry camping in a long line between the highway and the beach. Beyond that we stopped to get out and just look at this beach so close to Santa Barbara. Gigi just wants to be a beach babe! But we headed inland and set up at the KOA in Steckle Park. We did go into town, got some ice cream, wandered around downtown, and found a geocache. Santa Paula is in the middle of an agricultural region. It calls itself the Citrus Capital of the World! Back at the T@B we were delighted when a peacock stopped by for a visit!

Off the beaten path is Hampstead is the more than three hundred year old Burgh House with a fascinating history. It’s now a community center, local museum, gallery, concert venue, event space, and more open to the public four days a week.

Ever since its debut on Broadway the two of us have wanted to see “Wicked the Musical”. Today we realized that dream. In the Apollo Victoria Theater in London’s West End we were witness to the incredible prequel to The Wizard of Oz, the story of the Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
