I've been walking all over Santa Barbara taking photos of my favorite spots! Check out the new entries I made in the last few days!
When I used to live downtown my favorite walk was up Laguna street, past the Mission rose garden, and then up Garden Street- check it out: Garden Street Walk.
I've finished the Mission Rose Garden entry, and I'm excited about the photo I took there!
A magical playground with a huge wooden castle and endless possibilities for fun is Kidsworld. If you haven't already been there with your kids, you have to go! I took more photos of Kidsworld today so the entry will be expanded soon!
Today I had a wonderful walk around the historical part of Santa Barbara, and I'll be making those posts soon. Sorry, still have to go to the ruins we promised to photo last time!
Check out the Paseo Nuevo entry- gosh it was looking so good when I went yesterday and today! It's a shopping center with the most marvelous Spanish architecture.

I am proud to announce that...
The Arizona map is complete! Check out my new entries: the magnificent Grand Canyon,
the magical swim you could have at Lake Powell, and the miniature rooms that will mesmerize you at Phoenix Art Museum in Downtown Phoenix!
I just love making LotsaFunMaps!!!
Yesterday, I went down to Isla Vista to take some photos. Isla Vista is the beach town where UCSB students live. It was a wild and wacky experience. As usual, I saw sneakers hanging from the electric wires! There were students everywhere working on their tans, even in their front lawns by the traffic! Down at the Isla Vista Beach, there were rows and rows of beautiful beach babes! And on the cliffs above, there were old guys perving on them- ew! Freebirds was as happening as usual, with students sitting out on their sunny patio enjoying a huge burrito. It was a great scene! Check out the page about it!
Thanks for checking out LotsaFunMaps.com!!
Hope you find some nice places to go...

This weekend Ron and I went to Avila Beach and San Francisco to do a little research and take some photos! Expect those sites soon! We are very excited about some great places we found, especially a little pie shop called Peasant Pies in the Inner Sunset District, that reminded me of my youth growing up in Australia!
Thanks for checking out our website!
Don't miss out on the new location we added, Playgrounds, a rock climbing area up in the Santa Ynez mountains above Santa Barbara! By the way, the guy risking his life on the rock is the chief web developer for LotsaFunMaps!
