Russ and I are headed to Oklahoma City in just over a week to pick up his daddy from training - haven't seen him in 5 weeks! Since we've done the drive up and across the midwest twice now, we decided to go across then up this time. Here is the basic plan - any advice or comments are appreciated!
Day 1 - drive from OKC to Albuquerque (8 hours)
Day 2 - drive to Grand Canyon (~4 hours), staying at Yavapai Lodge West
Day 3 - morning in Grand Canyon, drive to Vegas (~4 hours), probably booking Circus Circus for a night
Day 4 - morning in Vegas, drive to DisneyLand (~4 hours), staying at Anaheim Plaza Hotel
Day 5 - Disneyland
Day 6 - drive up Highway 1, staying somewhere near Monterey? I'd like to stop at the Hearst Castle and maybe see some missions as well
Day 7 - drive to San Fransisco, go to Alcatraz (need to book the ferry in advance!), want a hotel near the Wharf (also is there parking near the Wharf for the Alcatraz ferry?)
Day 8 - drive to Oregon (8 hours)
Day 9 - drive home (6 hours)
