Main reason for going to SD is going to the Zoo. Like someone said, that Zoo just isn't everywhere. We also planned SD for the 4th of July. That's where we wanted to be to watch fireworks.
My main dread in this trip is LA on I5. Is there any way around LA to Yosemite without going to dreaded 120 which I've read isn't RV friendly?
Again, my wife and I have to say thank you to everyone for all the info. Wish I had done this sooner before our planning and making reservations. Are there any good places to stay around Yosemite that's not in the park incase we can't get more reservations? Again, we have only 1 night in the park but if we change the sched. and get more time, we obviously need somewhere to stay. Anyone?
