After hours of reading here and looking at flight, hotel etc. websites, I'm starting to put together a preliminary itinerary.
We will probably be arrriving around July 16 (anyone flown Spirit?) for approximately 10 days, not counting travel days. I'm trying to put together an itinerary to include some sights around Los Angeles, San Diego and of course Disneyland.
I'm also looking at the Queen Mary as a possiblity for 2 to 3 nights at the start of the trip in order to relax and do some touring around Los Angeles, before heading off to San Diego for a couple of days to visit a friend and see some sights and then finishing off with the remainder at DL, staying at the Hojo or Candy Cane Inn. Haven't ruled out a DL resort entirely, yet. I think I'll get a 3 day PH for myself, not sure about Dh yet as he wants to do some golfing but will probably spend at least one day with me at DL
Or...... I was also thinking of starting out touring the LA area/DL, going to San Diego for the couple of days, then finishing off with a couple of nights on the Queen Mary.
Opinions would be great!
Has anyone stayed on the Queen Mary and what did you think of it?
I think we are going to do mainly sight-seeing, some shopping areas, a few nice restaurants (including Blue Bayou and Goofy's while at DL), maybe take a Trolley Tour rather than go to another theme park etc. Also, is it feasible to drive along the coast and stop for a bit at the various beaches, maybe Santa Monica Pier, in a day?
TIA!
