Last year we did a road trip to the northeast part of America. We loved it as we hit many of the major cities like New York, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. I remember leaving Oklahoma City in our mini-van and by the time we were to Tulsa, I had been asked, "Are we there yet?" 22 times. I gave our kids a reality check when I said, "We are driving for 8 more hours, the sun will go down, we will check into a hotel, awake in Indiana, and then drive another 8 hours to Niagara Falls." They responded with a blank stare. You can check that trip out here. Well, this year we decided to give the west coast some love. California, baby!! To minimize the driving, we flew out to California from Oklahoma City and rented a car in San Diego. California is a huge state, so we knew we still had plenty of driving. But the key is to break up the drive with great destinations along the way. Our first stop was Los Angeles.
