Take the 5 to the 210 to the 57 South to get to Disney/Knott's area - that'll help with getting around LA and not driving in the middle of it all.
 
 If you can do the 101 back home, the Oregon State parks are awesome!  Check them out @ //www.reserveamerica.com

I took the kids on a road trip last year took over 2 weeks & went to see Step daughter & son-in laws restaurant (Mor mor bistro-Paulsbo WA) by your plans you have some BIG drives ahead of you

if you go to //www.goodsamclub.com they have a trip planner that I used that was real helpful..the drive times were pretty acurate

I understand what you're saying Kristi, but with the 57 being totally under construction, it could make going that way confusing and stressful, especially since she'll be towing her PU w/o her hubby...
 
unitydnk--depending on what time of day you're driving, it may be easier just to stay on the 5 fwy southbound to the Disneyland exit. We Californians don't think twice about taking 10 freeways to drive 15 miles, but people from other states may not be as comfortable with that, especially if unfamiliar with our freeways. When is your trip?

Huh?  The 57 is under construction?  Dan did all the driving last trip and I was reading. I had no clue.  Oops!  Thanks for the save.  Blonde moment.
