Found the Trip Report Thread and decided to do a Pre-trip report of our once in a lifetime trip to California. My dad has worked 30 years at the same small family owned company and they are rewarding him with a family trip to California. Our main focus is Knotts Berry Farm- we are roller coaster riders and most of the family has season Platinum Passes to Cedar Fair parks. Then we realized how close Disneyland was and were able to extend the trip. We are making plans with our local travel agent- our first time working with one, and her first time planning a vacation like this. This is also our first time to fly in a long time! I was hoping the kids would be a little older before we had an adventure like this.
So far everything has come together well.
Our family includes:
Me- celebrating my 36th Birthday on our trip, currently a stay at home mom
My husband, my oldest son- A- 6 years old in 1st grade, my youngest son- M-2- train and truck lovers
Grandma- My mom, Pappy- my dad- celebrating his 64th Birthday on our trip,
My lil and only brother Uncle J, and my SIL Aunt M
