After saving every spare cent for the last 3 years, I am so close to the goal that I am actually looking at booking flights, We are so excited .
Going on this trip will be myself (Mum) and my 2 girls, Miss 13 and Miss 7.
The plan so far is leave NZ on 4th January 2015, fly to LAX via either Air New Zealand or Virgin Australia.
Spend 3 days in Hollywood doing the walk of fame, the wax museums, Ripley's and Universal Studios.
Then to Anaheim for 12 days for Disneyland.
Down to San Diego for the Zoo and SeaWorld and the Maritime museum. 3 days
then to Buena Park for Knotts Berry Farm 4 days
Leave to come back to New Zealand on 26th January. Dates are pretty set as I have to work around parental access to the ex and school reopening at the end of January for Miss 13.
So I have been to the local travel and they have pencilled in Karmel Shuttles for transport to Hollywood at a cost of $126nz for the 3 of us, which I didn't think was to bad but in the terms it says that they don't provide car seats, So I was looking at other options as I really didn't want to bring a booster for Miss 7.
They also had Karmel for the trip from San Diego to Buena Park at a cost of $609nz which seems excessive. The trip down to San Diego was on Lux bus. So I was thinking ok maybe we should use Amtrak to get down and back from San Diego and just taxi to the Stations. And then I thought I might get a taxi from LAX to Hollywood rather then a shuttle.
With Taxi's do they have booster seats available? or do I need to take our own one? I assume its just like here, you pay one fare no matter how many customers unlike shuttles which you pay per seat. Also has anyone use Uber while in USA? would they have booster seats?
Thanks.
