When my parents and I decided that we were going to stay near Solvang and Lompoc, I started to look at things to do in the area. One interesting thing I found pretty close to the hotel was Ostrich Land. The tickets were very reasonable, so we decided to go as soon as we checked out of the hotel. It was a good thing we did because it was so crowded! The holiday season with kids being off of school was very apparent. We got one bowl to feed the ostriches and that was enough. The ostriches were already quite full and didn't come that much for feeding. However, it was quite nice for Amaya to see the ostriches and emus up close. Next we went back to Solvang to see the city during the day. Also for my dad, Leos and Amaya to see the city. Businesses were actually open, so it was quite nice being able to see some of the stores. My mom and I had to try some of the pastries. After we were done walking around, we headed to our next hotel that was in Lompoc. I googled things to do and they mentioned that it was a good idea to walk towards the center and check out all the street art. Just five minutes after leaving the hotel, I rolled my ankle. We had to go back and get my parents car. It was a good thing though because then everyone went together to check out all the murals in the city. There were so many murals and almost no one on the streets. It was quite eerie to see almost no one on the streets and a lot of stores empty because they had gone out of business. It was nice to get a chance to visit Lompoc, but I do not think I will need to return.
