[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hope she’s good in the car for that 5 1/2 hour drive…why not Aquarium of the Pacific, Carrillo or Scripps?  Those are excellent options and so much closer
Hate hassle of toting luggage all over with flying in/out different airports, too vagabond-y for my taste.[/quote]

It’s 5.5 hours spaced out over 2-3 days depending how OP breaks it up. Can your 7 year old really not hand 2-3 hours driving? That doesn’t seem unreasonable to me.[/quote]

It’s one of those drives that sounds a lot shorter than it feels. I think it’s the winding roads / carsickness factor and being in a relatively remote area.[/quote]

I agree it seems this way in parts, but there are some nice stops suggested and it's an iconic drive worth doing.  Did it with a 7-year old and a 10 year old.  The aquarium was my least favorite part, but I'm not a huge aquarium fan. Alternatively, you could see more of LA (Universal, Beverly Hills; tar pits; studio tours) and go south to San Diego and see the zoo and animal park and Coronado Island. [/quote]
