<p>Here's the situation, I ended my 1st year stellarly and explored SB just finely. Love the city and culture and I just moved into my home in IV. I've got some friends who are visiting for saturday and july 4th and want to leave a good impression of SB for them and so they can enjoy it. So far I'm planning on taking them to goleta pier and stearns wharf since we're all fishing freaks for Sat. Sunday I hear that SB holds parades and fireworks downtown? Can anyone clarify and give some ideas how this event takes place? I know fireworks begin 9pm, can we stay at stearns wharf and watch it? I believe parade begins at 12pm or something, is there anything we can do between time and such? PLEASE I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR SUGGESTIONS ON THE MOST FUN ACTIVITIES TO IN SANTA BARBARA. Thanks, enjoy the 4th of july weekend!</p>
