Hello all! DH and I (both age 30) are planning our first trip to California starting June 20. Not all of it is Disney related, but I appreciate help from those of you who are familiar with the Southern California area. I would appreciate any comments about our planned itinerary:
Monday June 20: fly direct to LAX, arrive 11:30 am. Take cab to San Pedro port and board Royal Caribbean's Monarch of the Seas.
Tuesday June 21: San Diego. Take shore excursion to San Diego Zoo (9 am to 2 pm). Return to ship -- possibly take ferry to Coronado? Dinner on ship.
Wednesday, June 22: Catalina Island. No shore excrusions scheduled here -- can we just walk around? Beach day? Maybe rent a golf cart and drive around -- anyone done that? What about shopping?
Thursday, June 23: Ensenada Mexico -- not sure what to do here. Is the Fox Studios Tour worth it? We've never been to a movie studio and we love Titanic. How far is it from the port? Should we just stay on the ship?
Friday, June 24: Dock in LA. Shore excursion tour of LA (five hours). Dropped off at LAX -- take Super Shuttle to Howard Johnson Anaheim. Check in, dinner at Mimi's, then do some shopping at Downtown Disney, maybe some pool time or a movie.
Saturday, June 25: Disneyland. Get there before park opening. Lunch at Blue Bayou. Dinner -- ??? If the crowds are unbearable, possibly head to DCA after lunch. Anyone know what parade we can see this day?
Sunday, June 26: I'd like to go to Mass if possible, but we won't have a rental car -- is there anything nearby? Spend the day at DCA. Ideas for meals that day? What about parades? Flight leaves at 9:30 pm.
thanks everyone!!
