So after a decade of vacationing at WDW, the family is heading west - Disneyland west to be exact! Looking at 9 months out (end of summer 2015) we are planning on a SanFrancisco to Disneyland trip. Probably 2 days at DL plus a day at Cali Adventure. Still in the early planning stages. Never been to Ca. so kinda excited.

Any early thoughts or suggestions from the DL crowd would be great....accommodations, navigating the park, stuff to possibly avoid, dining - you know, the usual!!
The clan is the usual:

DH - other than the long-ish flight, I'm ready
DW - add to her vacation planning portfolio
DS15 - wants to skateboard at Venice Beach!
DS12 - Intercotee in training

Will post as the plans develop but any help in advance is totally welcome!! Thanks
