Buellton California is a small town north of Santa Barbara. Located right next to the 101 freeway, Buellton provides very easy access to the surrounding Santa Ynez Valley and north towards the California central coast area. However, there is not much to see and do in Buellton itself, but the area around Buellton is full of rolling hills, wineries and tourist attractions. We really enjoyed Buellton as a short stop on our drive from Pismo Beach back to Southern California. Come along with me as we explore my favorite things to do in Buellton California.

Solvang is a quiet little town, with an European reputation even though it is located in the heart of California. There are many small towns scattered all over California, but Solvang is much different than all other small towns. Danish and Dutch early settlers in California were determined to maintain their heritage in everything they did and most of all in everything they built. From shops and restaurants to office building have all been built in Danish style. Come along with me and explore the best things to do in Solvang, California.
