I would start out in San Diego
1)Sea World
2)San Diego Wild Animal Park
3)Lego Land
4)Coronado Hotel
5)Sea Port Village
6)San Diego Mission
7)Drive up to Julian for a Buffalo Burger and fresh homemade Apple Pie
8)Visit the Museums in Balboa Park

Stop in Oceanside and Visit Mission San Luis Rey, Contine up I-5 and stop in San Juan Capistrano and visit the Mission there. Then I would continue up I-5 and stop and Visit Disneyland!!! Then drive over to Buena Park and visit Knotts Berry Farm!!! From Buena Park-Head up I-5 to the East LA Interchange and take the 101 North To Santa Barbara!!!

Get off the 101 at Cabrillo Blvd and turn Left!! You will drive along the beach and I would stop at Stearns Wharf and walk out on the pier and walk through the shops, take the hour boat tour (the tour boat is at the end of the pier). Then I would have a nice lunch at one of the restaurants along the beach or go up on State Street. Along State Street is a shoppers Paradise!! You could shop all day long if you wanted to. Then I would head up 101 to El Capitan State Beach and Campground and camp out for a couple of days or the night. Continue up 101 to I believe the 254 into Solvang!!!! As you are driving up 254 (San Marcos Pass) you will see Lake Cachuma...stop and take the boat tour there and visit the Visitor Center...they are supposed to have some really neat exhibits!!!

Solvang is a little bavarian/Dutch town with lots of neat shops to walk through!!! There is a restaurant called "The Solvang Restaurant". Stop in there and have an Ableskiver (hot pancake ball with jam and powdered sugar)!!! Talk to the owner of the restaurant..his name is Jeff Paske...tell him you saw him on the Road Trip with Huell Howser and he can tell you all about the history of Solvang. I would visit Mission Santa Ines which is right there in town. The Mission there is really pretty!!! Then find your way over to 101 and continue going north!!!

I would go up to Pismo Beach and camp at either Oceano or Monarch Grove campgrounds and camp there for a couple of days!!! Pismo Beach is supposed to be a great little town to visit!!! After being in Pismo Beach for a couple of days, I would continue up 101 till you get to San Francisco!! Take that to I-80 and head up into the mountains and drive into Lake Tahoe!!!!

Lake Tahoe is a beautiful area and you wont want to miss out on it!!! You can take the 2 hour tour on the lake on the Paddle Wheel boat there in town, drive around the lake...which is a beautiful drive!!! Drive up to Squaw Valley...about an hour from Lake Tahoe and take the tram up the mountain and have lunch at the restaurtant/Cafe up at the top of the mountain and look out at Lake Tahoe and the valley below.

Or if you want to visit our mountain areas, you could easily visit Big Bear Lake and Lake Arrowhead in the same day. Walk through the Village shopping areas, have a nice lunch and just enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Or if you wanted to go to Palm Springs, you should take the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway up to Mt. San Jacinto and hike through the wilderness up there, even take your tents and camping gear and camp out up there somewhere in the forrest. Also not too far from Palm Springs is the Outlet Stores in Cabazon for your shopping pleasure.

That would be my recommendation for your trip to California!!!!
Whatever you decide to do...Have a great time and enjoy your trip to California!!!

We went on a 3 week trip to California in February and had the holiday of a lifetime! I arranged it via a UK company Bon Voyage and it was very reasonably priced.
Here's what we go up to:
*San Francisco - Alcatraz, Golden Gate Bridge, tour of City, Trams, Fisherman's Wharf, Clam Chowder, restaurants, Shopping
Hired a car after 3 days and drove along the Highway 1 to LA. Took us the whole day but saw some breathtaking views along the way. The Big Sur area is spectacular!
*Hollywood - Walk of Fame, Chinese Theatre, Stars Homes Tour, Universal Studios
*Anaheim - Disneyland, Factory Outlet Stores
*Laguna Beach - Had to stay here as kids watch show on MTV. Also went to Newport Beach and Huntington Beach. Dana Point - boat trip to see whales and dolphins.
*San Diego - Sea World, Mexico for the day, More Outlet stores!!
San Diego Zoo, Animal Park
*Palm Springs - Aerial tramway up into the mountains
*Las Vegas - Spent the day at the Grand Canyon, Casinos, Hotels
we packed in a lot into our holiday and hired the car after our 3 days in San Francisco. The people are friendly and I just can't wait to go back!! I am sure you will love it there as much as I do!

Driving the Pacific Coast Highway from San Diego to San Francisco is a very popular way to see the state.
