Day 37, Wedensday, Frazier Park to Santa Monica
/På vår morgonpromenad fick vi se en liten by som skulle varit väldigt fin om bara inte alla slängt sina sopor runt huset. Annars såg vi många gamla bilar i trädgårdarna och allt var väldigt mysigt. Fina vyer med berg runtom. Vi lämnade ganska tidigt och fick en fin resa över bergen. Vi stannade för naturdusch och senare för lunch. Helt underbart och vädret perfekt.
Snart nådde vi Ventura och lite senare åkte vi genom Malibu valley som var överraskande vacker . Kvällen avslutades i Santa Monica men vi hittad sen ingen bra sovplats där utan fortsatte lite till och fann en Walmart parkering. Somnade och vaknade av att en parkeringsvakt knackade på dörren. ”Sir” detta är privat mark och övernattning är inte tillåtet. Vi fick efter bara två timmars sömn flytta till ett nytt ställe som var mycket bättre. Nu står vi i ett villakvarter och det är helt tyst. Nu ska vi sova gott.
On our morning walk we discovered a small village that would have been very nice if just not for all the garbage around the houses. Otherwise we saw many old cars in the gardens and everything was very cozy. Nice views of the mountains all around. We left pretty early and got a nice trip over the mountains. We stopped for a shower in the nature, little cold but fantastic good afterwards. Later we parked for lunch with absolutely fantastic view. The weather was perfect, like early spring in the mountains, and in the lowland like a early summer in Sweden.
We drove beautiful mountain road to Ojai and soon we reached Ventura and took a stroll on the beach. Little later we went through Malibu valley which was surprisingly beautiful. After looking for a while for a dump station we arrived in the evening in Santa Monica but found no good place to park so we continued until we found a Walmart parking. We fell asleep and woke up two hours later with a knocking on the door. "Sir," this is private land and overnight is not allowed. That was the first time that happened and we did not understand at all as Walmart wants drivers to park overnight but this Walmart closed in the evening so no overnight parking. We moved to a new place that was much better. Now we are in a residential neighborhood and it's completely silent. Now we will sleep well.
Ventura beach was nice
