Hello West Coasters!
DD16 is interested in attending CalArts (yes we know it's selective and competitive - we've got that part covered) , so I was wanting to combine a preliminary trip to scout out the college and the area with a trip to Disneyland next summer. We had never been to the left coast, so will likely need a lot of hand-holding in the coming months.
We usually take our family vacation at the end of August - is this a good time to think about going to DL? Is earlier in the summer better or worse?
I know CalArts is in Valencia and DL is in Anaheim. I'm guessing we would have to rent a car?
Even though Valencia appears to be NE of LA, is LA like DC - in that we might get easily lost driving around it?
Does anyone have any suggestions of where to fly into?
Should we stay at DL area the whole time?
Any and all suggestions are welcome. I need to build an itinerary and I'm starting from scratch.
Thanks in advance all.
