We are going June 5- June 21, 2009! I just got my reservation today for Yosemite Lodge. I wasn't able to get my first choice of dates for Yosemite, so I to make some changes to my original plan.
June 5th (evening arrival)- June 8th San Fran
June 8th-10th Monterey
June 10th-13th Yosemite
June 13th stop in Redding
June 14th-16th Crescent City, CA
June 16th-18th Newport, OR (or should I pick a different town?)
June 18th-20th Cannon Beach, OR (The Ocean Lodge)
June 20th-21st Seattle or Portland (depends on best airfare on SWA- heading to Chicago after this trip before going back to Texas)
All of this is brand new to our family. We know very little about the area, although I have plenty of time to plan and read!!! My husband and I will be 40 (well I'll be ALMOST 40) and our daughters will be 11 and 9. We may have our 14 year old nephew too. We will stay at Hiltons everywhere except Yosemite, Newport, and Cannon Beach. I had to shorten the OR part of the trip due to the later Yosemite reservation. I wanted to go to Monterey anyways, so it worked out okay. I don't want any 1 nights stays (except Redding to break up the Yosemite to Crescent City drive), so that leaves 2 OR coast cities. Any different towns? Well, if you read all of this, thanks for your time and help!!
