California Here I Come!

Details for the great California Adventure are being worked out as we speak. Here is the tentative plan:

Fly from JFK to LAX on December 9, arriving at 10am PT. From there, I rent a car and drive down to Anaheim.

Spend the day/night in Anaheim, visiting DisneyLand, and perhaps a beach.

December 10th will mark my first trip to Honda Center to see the Ducks play the Blues. After the game I plan to drive up to Santa Barbara, assuming it hasn't totally burned up.

The next morning I set up the Pacific Coast Highway to San Jose. Should be quite gorgeous from what I hear. That evening (December 11th) I will see the Ducks take on the Sharks at the HP Pavilion in San Jose.

After the game I will drive up either to a suburb of, or downtown San Francisco and spend a day and a half there, flying home on Saturday, December 13th, landing at JFK around midnight eastern time.

Pretty ambitious trip, but it should be a nice way to celebrate the end of the season for me and the start of my vacation.

So far I have the flight booked, as well as a hotel room in Anaheim and Santa Barbara. Tomorrow I will figure out what I am doing up in San Jose and San Francisco, and after booking those hotels I will book my car. I want to make sure to give back the car once I get into SFO since I won't really need it to see the city.

Hopefully I'll have another update tomorrow.

Stay Tuned!!

I am currently planning a trip to California for a little Ducks tour. It'll be great to see my favorite team on Home Ice! Plus, you know, Disneyland. This is turning out to be quite an ambitious undertaking, so keep an eye on this blog as details get finalized and released.

By the way - the airline tickets have just been purchased!!
