Not Much On

Today I didn't really have a plan so I decided to take Brooke up on her offer of taking her bike out for a spin. It was another pretty nice day so I went down to the bike path along beside the beach and went to the edge of the city and back. Took this photo:


No doubt you are getting bored of pictures taken facing the sun by now. It just makes the photo look cool so you'll just have to put up with it.

After I got back it was only early afternoon so I decided to go out in search of a cable to connect my tablet to a TV. It turns out that the main street in Santa Barbara is 90% restaurants and 9% clothing shops. All ridiculously expensive too. I found a place called radioshack that had the right cable but it was too expensive at $30.

When Brooke and Tristan had got home from work we went for a walk to see the courthouse lit up at night. We took a couple of roadies too.


From the Courthouse we could hear an engine revving on what sounded like a sweet car so we decided to go check it out. We were disappointed / amused to find it was actually a dude in a pickup truck. I dunno what the hell he was up to though, he was just revving the engine and driving backwards and forwards about 10m. Tristan and Brooke tried to convince me that that is not normal behaiviour for Californians but I'm not so sure. Some lady called the police and apparently it is illegal to drink in public in Santa Barbara so we went home to watch a kinda hilarious movie called "Tommy Boy". I love that I am getting introduced to all the American classic comedies. I really need to show a few people footrot flats!
