Do you think these people behind me know that sharing is caring? 🤔🍚🍲🥘🤤
.
We took a daytrip up to Ventura last Saturday 🚗 🗺 It was so much fun! We got to sniff some new smells, learn some history, and see new creatures 🐿🏄🏻‍♂️
.
Did you know that in the early 1870s, a Chinese community settled in Ventura? This mural is dedicated to the early settlers and there’s a plaque explaining the history (swipe to see).
.
The weirdest thing we saw were the beach squirrels! 🐿 Swipe to see a video of them at the end.
.
We found Ventura to be a really dog-friendly town and because of COVID, Main Street (where lots of restaurants and shops are) has been converted into a pedestrian zone with outdoor seating for restaurants making it possible for us to dine with our humans. We went on a Saturday though so we’re not sure if the ped zone was set up just for the day or also valid on the weekdays.
.
Tip: The public parking structure on Santa Clara St. is free for the first 4 hours (we parked there longer for no charge 😏). There’s also EV chargers on the first floor of the parking lot 🔌
.
We totally recommend checking out Ventura if you’re ever craving some sea breezes and friendly vibes 🌊

Crown thy good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea.

The last 5 words are certainly so beautiful…but that’s just defining the location. Our call to action and the depth of this lyric truly lies in the line just before them.
