Denmark In California



What an amazing sight! It's a Danish town replicated in the Santa Ynez Valley of California! Why is Solvang so little known? Not many people I talked to about it before my trip began had ever heard of it. What a charmer, just a few miles off Route101. They have a fairly large RV lot with complimentary parking in Solvang and when that closes at 5PM you can drive 2 minutes to their sister city of Buellton and stay at Flying Flags RV Resort. One thing I've always loved about California is it's warm days and deep freeze nights, but I couldn't find a free plug-in for electric and I wasn't about to leave this little gem until I got my fill of it. I broke down and rented space inside the RV park and I'm glad I did. Rates are reasonable, bathrooms are immaculate.. including large showers, there's a pool and after breakfast I'll spend the morning.. or longer.. showing you Solvang. Meanwhile, Nala keeps touching the keyboard of the computer and then looking at me. This cat is a great communicator... she's cold and I'm her bunk mate. Meet me tomorrow night, wherever I am, and you'll see Solvang through my eyes. Goodnight! Sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite...

but, if they do,
take your shoe,
and beat them 'til they're black and blue!
I've never heard of Solvang- so, I'm waiting . . . .
