One more Solvang thing.

I forgot to include another fun thing that we did in Solvang.

We went to an outdoor theatre production. It was REALLY well done. I'm not sure what we were expecting but whatever that was it lived way above our expectations!

We brought along our blankets & I wore my Uggs. (I hate being cold)

The staging, costumes, acting...well...none of it could have been better. It equaled many productions we've seen in Vegas, NY or London....I'm not exaggerating!

We really DO love the efforts of performers & those that put it all together & make it happen.

They didn't allow any photos inside but I've a few I took on the grounds where people bring their blankets, sit on the lawn & have a little picnic. There was also a poster that showed some of the costumes from this 1700's play.  

SOLVANG, CA JULY 15-19 2012

We've finally begun our Autumn RV trip early.
We met some other RVers in Solvang, Ca.
We were there for four nights there & then began our eastward trek to the eastern provinces of Canada.

Solvang is a cute but touristy Danish town north of Santa Barbara. Joey & I have been here several times before & still enjoy the architecture & wandering around.

They have a beautiful farmers market too but we didn't take any pictures there.

In a small town nearby, Los Olivos, we had heard about a unique succulent nursery. It wasn't just a succulent nursery but also sort of a fantasyland of artworks! 

I hope I can find this yellow one when we get home. The common name is Kangaroo Paws

Joey bought this silly little metal horse sitting on a horseshoe with some hooks for keys or utensils....whatever.

Look at Joey's hair!!! NO he didn't get a new "do". When I first looked at this one I couldn't figure what the heck was going on with his hair but when I zoomed in I was able to see the yellowish halo was a sunlit bush perfectly aligned with his head!  Too funny, eh?
