Day 33

Spent the day in Santa Barbara. Population: 89,639.  There is a fancy downtown with Spanish style buildings and varieties of shops along the shaded streets and arcades.

Everyday I bike through around two or three decent sized cities. I have a long mental list of cities that I tell myself, "someday I will live here".  It is exciting to see so many different types of towns. Although biking doesn't cover as many miles per day, it forces you to rapidly keep moving from place to place. Whereas in cars, trains, and airplanes cover miles fast but have fewer stops. Biking has an advantage in that you can explore more places and see more things.
