Just how bad is traffic in LA?
We are planning mostly a Hollywood / DisneyLand time in LA, then heading up Hwy1 towards SF ( with a couple of stops along the way ).
My mother would like to check out a beach, and I was thinking if we could get a BEACH RESORT while in LA ( maybe in Santa Monica? or Long Beach? ) we could drive to Universal Studios and/or Warner Brothers for those tours on those days... but what kind of traffic would I be facing in doing this?
( DisneyLand is a non-issue as we're spending two days on our DVC at the Grand Caifornian Villas ).
The other alternative is spending a half-day in Santa Monica before hopping onto Hwy 1 and using the afternoon to start our trek north?
P.S. What are temperatures like in CA in LateFeb/EarlyMarch? What is the difference between LA and SF in that regard?
P.P.S. a lot of posts recently, but I am on a serious information gathering phase for our trip. and I've never been to CA... well not since I was 3 anyway...
