So far, we are either going to drive or rent an RV and stay at campsites. We are going to visit some family in Stockton. Ariel and I want to do some surfing - which means nice little gentle waves and a beach where the kids can play. We may go to Disneyland for a day, or we may not. I am impressed with the Costa Noa resort in Pescardaro. We are not sure about whether we will spend more time in Southern or Northern California. Most important, and at all costs, we must pick places where we can hang out with the kids comfortably. We are usually much happier in hippieish places, as I tend to get hives when surrounded by blond, thin rich people. I welcome any and all recommendations or thoughts!!!

All I can tell you is that driving the coast (especially in N. Cali and even southern Oregon) is totally worth it! It's so beautiful, and there are tons of quirky little activities along the way. I have a picture of my sister with this giant statue of Paul Bunyan.
I'm sorry I can't be more help!
You guys will have tons of fun!
Well if you like hippy places, have you been to Ashland, Oregon? It is fabulous. There are lots of camping places nearby too, I think east of there. And Mt. Shasta the town in northern California. The Oregon coast is phenomenal too, particularly the sand dunes. And in northern California I like Lassen Park. I have family around there who are all very outdoorsy so if you like email me and I can perhaps find some serious and detailed suggestions for the area.
Depot Bay and Lincoln City, OR make cool stops. Moe's in Newport is our favorite stop for clam chowder.
I agree with Amy... the Oregon Dunes in Florence is terrific!
