CHARLIE CHAPLIN'S MONTECITO INN

Built in 1928 by cinema legend Charlie Chaplin, the Inn was originally meant as an escape to paradise for Mr. Chaplin's closest Hollywood friends. Megan I escaped LA and drove up to have lunch at Montecito's yummy cafe (exquisite California Nouveau cuisine) with DEAREST friend Dorothy Shaner! It was the day of the Royal Wedding and many of the ladies were donning fancy hats! Including ME!

It was a lovely lunch catching up on all of the Shaner family news! This beautiful fountain full of flowers will greet you when you enter the Montecito Cafe :)

Megan wanted to pose with her favorite star from the silent film era!

What's up next in our adventure to Santa Barbara? A personal tour of LotusLand with Dorothy at the helm :)
