We returned this past week from a visit to Southern California. We were there from June 19-30. We stayed offsite for the first week at the hotel "formerly known as Hawthorn Suites, soon to be La Quinta Inn & Suites" according to the sign, from Saturday through Saturday. We had 5 day park hoppers and basically spent 3 days in DL and 2 in CA with one off day, spending time in Downtown Disney. We LOVED both parks and the close proximity of everything. (We've been to WDW several times, staying both on and off site) We drove down to Carlsbad Saturday morning and spent 2 nights at Holiday Inn Carlsbad by the Sea, with Saturday and Sunday in Legoland. For the last 2 nights we returned to Anaheim and stayed at the Disneyland Hotel, just exploring the resort, relaxing and swimming. We had a great trip and felt it was a good amount of time to see just about everything without feeling rushed. Just thought I'd share and I'd be happy to answer any questions I can.
