Is this a decent California trip Itinerary?

So my friend who lives in San Francisco invited me to come visit this summer, and I'm definitely taking advantage of that offer! I live in Massachusetts and this will be my first time in California since I was 3...so essentially, I have never really been there.

I figured that since I probably won't make it out to the West Coast again for a long time that I would make it a slightly longer trip and see a little bit more than just San Francisco.

This is my plan, so far:

-Fly into LAX and spend arrival day doing whatever cheesy Hollywood tourist sightseeing I can fit into this day
-Spend the next 3 days at Disneyland
-My friend is probably going to fly down to LA from SF and we are going to rent a car (preferably a convertible!) and take 2 days driving to San Francisco via the Pacific Coast Highway. Mini road trip!
-Spend 4 days in San Francisco with my friend who will be my local tour guide

I'm planning on 10-11 days for this trip. Does it seem like a reasonable itinerary? I know it is a pretty busy schedule but I am definitely not the lounge around at the beach type of vacationer...maybe when I am older but I'm in my early 20's and might as well enjoy the energy while it lasts. Is there anything I should change or re-think? This is pretty much just a skeleton for the trip for me to build off of. The entire LA/Disneyland half of my trip is going to be spent completely solo.
 
Sounds good but depending on where you are staying & when your flight arrives maybe just check out the Pacific Ocean and then head to your DL area hotel.
