We tend to lay low during the annual Santa Barbara tradition of Old Spanish Days. The downtown area where we live gets packed with locals and out-of-towners and our relatively quiet and small town of Santa Barbara becomes loud and crowded. Although, we did pick a couple of Fiesta activities to participate in and they did not disappoint.
Sofia, our neighbor and "Big Sister" to Samantha, toured all around town this week with her flamenco dancing group. We went and watched one of her performances and she was amazing!
We also checked out El Mercado Del Norte, the Fiesta carnival at Mackenzie Park. Last year when we went, Samantha had her first pony ride. This year Samantha was tall enough to ride some of the rides.
We bumped into Sam's friend Ava which was nice because they got to ride most of the rides together.
Thatcher was a good sport even though he didn't meet the minimum height requirement for any of the rides (any day now Thatch).
The slide we have at our house will no longer do after Samantha rode this one, five times....
Viva La Fiesta!!
Now go home everyone so we can find parking on our street again :)
