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.
