We have visited California several times now but would like to cross off a few things off our bucket list while we also hit Disneyland for their 60th Celebration. We are thinking early June of 2015. Not sure of the budget yet but we are thinking at least a week and a half or so.
Bucket List Items include:
Lake Tahoe
Camping near Big Sur or somewhere near the Pacific Ocean.
Walt Disney Family Museum
Walt Apartment above the Firehouse
We have been to SF, Monterey, Yosemite National Park, San Diego, Catalina, DL, and driven quite a bit of HWY 1.
So my big two questions are:
1) Is Lake Tahoe worth a couple days of our trip?
We do plan on hitting YNP once again because on our first and only time my wife wasn't feeling good (we later found she had cancer in her thryoid gland and we also didn't make it to Glacier Point which we sorely missed),
2) Is camping a viable option for a family that has really never camped before? We would love to stay near the ocean and camp out or find a cabin of some sorts. We would want something safe and family oriented.
One more question if I may....Has anyone done the train that cuts through the redwoods near Santa Cruz?
I'm in the planning stages and welcome all the help I can get.
