We decided to take advantage of this! Our friends Jeremy and Kira joined us for the road trip. We had a great time! It was fun to experience Disneyland as adults. Russell was adamant eat every meal in Disneyland (something neither of us did as kids).
The drive wasn't too bad despite the air conditioning stopped working on the first leg of the trip and it was 90+ once we hit the LA area. We spent one day (16+ hours) in Disneyland. We rode Thunder Mt Railroad 4 times, Splash Mt 2 time, Space Mt 1 time, Indiana Jones 2 times, Tea Cups 1, Matterhorn 1, Jungle Cruise 2 (and some other rides) saw the parade, the fireworks show and fantasmic. We were all exhausted to say the least at 12:30am when we left the park and I had huge blisters on my toes from walking all day! But it was a blast!
The next day headed to the San Francisco area to visit the Gowins family (Jamie and Jonathan). We then spent the next day in the SF area. We had a great time going to Fisherman's Wharf and touring Alcatraz.
So all in all it was about 3 days of driving for 2 days of fun. It was definitely worth it, but next time I think we will fly!
