Sally in Santa Barbara

Sally is now visiting James and Loris in Santa Barbara, California. Here is what James has to say so far about her visit:

Well, I didn't do such a great job with the timer function on my camera so I'm the cut-off person on the left here, but below is a picture of Flat Sally at Palazzio in Santa Barbara, having dinner with two new (to her) Canadian friends from Victoria, BC, who are staying in Santa Barbara for a few days.


Here's the link to the restaurant:http://www.palazzio.com/
Here's a satellite map of the location (1026 State Street, Santa Barbara, CA):http://maps.live.com/#JnE9eXAuMTAyNi...MTU4LjIwMzEyNQ==

Here's a street view (I think - I'm not sure the street view links automatically, but if you can click on Street View you should be able to see it.)http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=e...31517100760017 .
After dinner we drove up through the hills of Montecito and took some pictures of the city and the bay. There's a horrible fire there tonight. I guess we saw it just in time. We also walked out on the long pier (known as Stearns Wharf) into the bay. It was a beautiful night with a full moon. Sally wanted to play on the beach but we told her it was a little late at night for that. She'll get another chance this Sunday as we drive through Santa Barbara up to Lompoc, our hometown.
It's sunny and 77 degrees (F) here right now. I think she has taken to our back patio, although she has to share it with two cats who have declared themselves Queens of the Backyard.
