I lived in San Diego for 12 years and it’s worth it. The Zoo and the Safari Park (a lot of us still call it the Wild Animal Park) are great places to go. And I always enjoy the Aerospace Museum in Balboa Park. Your husband should golf at the muni course in Coronado, one of the most beautiful courses you’ll find and right on the water, while you and the kids spend the day at the Hotel Del (part of the inspiration for the Grand Floridian and has a great beach) and check out the rest of Coronado. Plus the USS Midway Downtown is fantastic.
In getting between Anaheim and San Diego, you can stop at Legoland if you want.
I spent about 5 years in Orange County (CA) and if you want to have a beach day closer to Disneyland, I was always partial to Laguna Beach or Huntington Beach.
In L.A., Griffith Observatory is definitely worth it. Hollywood for me is way overrated. The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens in San Marino is awesome!
My personal favorite California spot is Santa Barbara.
