I hate road trips. I really, really loathe them! Any favorite stops from Nor Cal to Disney? Or Nor Cal to San Diego? We have two separate trips coming up and I'm wondering if they're are fun stops to break it up. We've done both but this will be the first time driving directly to SD instead of from LA. To Disney we will probably take 46 to 5 in order to get there as soon as possible and try to get into the parks. That is just a barren stretch of road that is miserable. We are driving down on a Saturday. After we made it into LA last time after the grade the kids needed a pit stop and it wasn't a good place to stop that we stumbled into. Is there a good place to plan on stopping? Going back home we won't be in a rush so we'd probably have more time to stop. I went to UCSB and much prefer the drive up 101 when I go north but I know it can add a lot more time so I'm not sure if it's worth it. We are driving back on a Sunday too which I've always found to have bad traffic on 101. Which way do you go and do you stop anywhere?
This will be our first time going back and forth directly from SD. We will leave and return on Mondays but our drive down is on Columbus Day so I don't know if there will be extra traffic. Previously we've done it from LA and I don't think we timed it right because we just sat in traffic most of the way. On our way back we will be going back from Carlsbad. Anything fun to break it up?
