solvang, ca trip 4th of july weekend! we just headed over for the day before the crowds hit. the weather was beautiful and we had a great drive. i got busy taking shots with our minolta 5mpx point and shoot. here are some of the things i liked there...
so many beautiful flowers! we had just missed the big flower festival they have in that area. we went in search of the flower fields to get some good shots but unfortunately they were all gone. 
i enjoyed all their cute benches. the "gossip bench" was at the Finnish cottages on the main road. that's part of my heritage that i unfortunately don't know much about; so i was interested to see what was there. this is a great day trip if you're in the southern cali area.
