We're in the very early stages of planning a California trip and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. Hope some of the experts here can chime in and help me get started.
It will be my husband and I and our 2 young kids (4 and 1.5). Travel dates are late next May to early June. We'll be flying into San Diego on Monday and flying out of San Fransisco just over 2 weeks later (Tuesday). We're trying to be budget friendly this trip. We like seeing stuff, but also know we have to go at a slower pace because of the kids.
So far all we know is Disneyland is a priority (WDW regulars, but first time to DL). Other than that, we want 5ish days in SF as we'll be visiting friends.
So, what are some places we should consider going? How long should we stay in SD before going to DL? How long should we stay at DL? How many days/nights should we take driving up the coast? Where should we stop along the way?
Just looking for a starting point to get me on the right track. Especially if anyone has experience doing this trip with young kids. Thanks!
