Can't wait to see it

This was a fun book to listen to. I've been dreaming of travel for a while and I'm compiling a wishlist of places I want to go. So far, my list is kind of short. I know I want to see more places, but I don't really know where I want to go. This book made me decide to definitely add Santa Barbara County to my list. I had no idea about all the exciting things there! I can't wait to see it!
