California Dreaming

Yeah I know.  Usually I am dreaming of Hawaii.  That trip is a ways out.  I want them to be big enough to appreciate it and remember it.  So I have been waiting for the kindergarten schedule.  My brain is stuck on October.  We will be in our lull at work and it will be cooler.
So the schedule was finally posted.  And there is a block of time where there is no kindergarten.  So I started looking at time frames for then and hotel prices.  San Francisco must be a business town.  Hotels are cheaper on weekends.  So now I am structuring my plan around being there on a weekend.  No way around it.  To make that work she will miss a day of school.  And so it will be.  We will head south on Friday and end in Crescent City. That puts us right in the beginning of the Redwoods.  I'm so stoked.
Saturday will put us going over the Golden Gate Bridge and heading to Pacifica for the weekend. Hotel is right on the beach.  Bart runs there which will take us right into SF.  Don't want to drive there or park there so it will be excellent.
Monday heads us north to Clearlake to meet up with Jeremy, Kiah and Kylie.  Then on to Redding to spend a little time in the Lake Shasta area.  And then working our way home.
I think I have it broken up enough with shorter drive days.  I know we can tolerate seven hours.  And none of this will be straight time.  Lots of stops to see things along the way.
