My kids complained the pasta sauce had a bit of a zing to it. I would agree, it was fine for me, but if they are picky or sensitive, be aware. My 5 year olds ordered the spaghetti & meatballs. They liked the meatballs (but they only had 2 or 3), but said the sauce was spicy. My 7 year old...

We also went to the Trattoria. Our reservations were for opening night @ 4:50. I agree the food was not fantastic. I got the seafood pasta. It had 5 shrimp and 3 scallops in it. My DH got the New York Strip (it actually was). The kids meals were off the regular menu, but they charged us...

thanks for all the replies, everyone! Since my original post, we have decided to go, mostly since we live in KY and probably won't be back to DL for some time. IF they decide to bring WOC to DW, only then would we have a chance to see it. That is a few years away, at best, IMO...

thanks letitsnow. You took the words out of my mouth! We are leaning towards going for it and I want to be as prepared as I can!

Here's some info... We are going to DL 6/8, 9, & 10. We were planning on going to US on 6/11. We are from Ky and this is our first time to DL. We probably won't be back anytime soon. We have a 7 year old and 5 year old twins. My question is do we switch things around and go to DL 6/11 and...

We changed our hotel plans again. Parking was $12 a night for downtown and reviews of the hotel said there was a 3:00am train that blew its horn every night. I am a light sleeper and have trouble going back to sleep, so we decided that might not be a good fit for us. Now we are staying in the...

We had to check prices for our flight. We are in CVG (cincinnati) and it was cheaper to fly to LAX and home out of SAN. We have young children so the flight times also had to be considered. It was a few dollars more for a morning flight for us to LAX, but otherwise we would be getting in at...

I am on the MTS website. It has line 8 & 9 going there. Is this a bus service? Not really for tourists? The reason we are asking is that we were going to stay downtown. There is a $12 a day parking fee. If we stay at the SW airport hotel, the cost is about the same, but parking is free. I...

We are definitely going to La Jolla. In the evenings or if we have some free time Ocean beach is closer. Is this a good beach? Sound we stick with Mission Beach?

One more thing for those familiar with SD. What is your opinion on the trolley system? We are staying downtown and are considering using it to get around. It looks like it goes everywhere we need to go in SD~ SW, zoo, La Jolla, even LL! Any thoughts are appreciated! Thanks again!

This forum has been sooo helpful. I think we have finally decided. I will share our itinerary for those who are planning and are interested: We wound up buying the City pass. It was cheaper for us in the long run. Arrive LAX staying at HoJo, DL 3 days, US 1 day. Heading South to SD going...

Thanks for the reply. It IS encouraging. This is going to be a great trip, I just had no idea how hard it would be to plan. Our schedule sounds very similar to yours, but backwards. We start in DL (we are staying at HoJo too!) and end in SD with the SW, the beach, La Jolla and the zoo. We...

Thanks to both Erinbharris and Hydroguy. Definitely something to chew on. I really appreciate the info regarding the traffic and Poway (sorry about earlier misspelling). Those are both things I had no idea of. This will help us make our decision, hopefully in the next couple days!

Thanks hydroguy for your post! So, are you guys more of a Disney family? We LOVE all things Disney, but have only been to WDW. I was thinking my kids would really enjoy LL. We were thinking of buying a 1 day tix and upgrading to another day if it goes well. Thanks for the advice about SW...

So are you planning on staying in Carlsbad and commuting to SD the other days? That's what we can't decide cuz we want to split our days at LL like you. We thought about staying in Carlsbad for a couple of nights then going to SD and staying closer to SW the rest of our vac. The last day we...

Hello. I'm a newbie, but have followed this website on many an occasion for WDW trips. We are making our 1st trip to CA. We are flying into LAX in early June and have 2 days planned at DL. Then we are heading south. We fly home 9 days later out of SAN. Our kids are 7, 5, & 5. We want to...

I know this discussion is a couple of weeks old, but when I read your posts, I was thinking the same thing. This by far has been the hardest trip to plan. We are flying into LAX doing DL for 2 days then heading South. From there is where it is getting complicated. Can't decide about LL, SW...
