Ace Ventura

It’s our last full day of driving before dropping Musty the car off tomorrow and boarding the plane to England. We set off early and went to go elephant seals twitching. There is quite a big colony near San Simeon. The seals weren’t doing much apart for sunbathing, swimming, flipping sand and scratching their bellies - typical beach bums. They share the beach with very cheeky and fearless squirrels.

As we’re trying to get as close to LA as possible before tomorrow we decided we’ll stay in Ventura, just past Santa Barbara. Ventura is a nice little town on the highway 101.  Little Miss Sunshine, Erin Brockovich, The Rock and a couple of other films have been filmed here. Again, we had a motel voucher :)

We arrived quite early so we went exploring. We found shop selling Hawaiian shirts and JJ bought one. He says it will be his barbeque shirt although I think he should wear it to the office. I bought a pareo as we are in surfboarding town after all.

There seems to be quite a few Indian restaurants so we went out to check if anything can beat curry served in our home sweet home Leicester. It was quite nice but Leicester definitely reigns.
