Coastal Journey, Day 6: Ojai to Los Angeles



And then it was over. Our vacation, that is. It all wound up in Ojai, where we woke up early and headed to a coffee shop down the street for a little breakfast.


We then walked around downtown Ojai, stopping at several stores and visiting the Sunday Farmers' Market behind the town's Spanish-style arcade of shops.

After the stop downtown, we decided to grab lunch -- but in Santa Maria. That required taking the 150 east, and up.

The reward: A great view of the Ojai Valley. Just in case you didn't realize it, this handy sign reminds you. It's the OJAI VALLEY. Got it.


Cool, we get it.

And then... well, the Kid Formerly blah blah blah fell asleep, and we wound up just getting burgers (Maria from Tastee Freez; I held out for In N Out). A less than exciting way to end our trip. But at that point, we were just ready to head on home. We hopped on the 118 and traveled East. 

The clothes are unpacked, the photos have been downloaded and now, the blog posts have been written. Guess the trip is truly over.
