Disneyland
Where orange groves once
grew, there Walt Disney
built his fantasy Magic
Kingdom in 1955. Beloved
cartoon characters still
waltz arm-in-arm down
Main Street, USA, and
fireworks explode over
Sleeping Beauty’s Castle.
If you’re a kid, or just
hopelessly young-at-
heart, who are we to say
this can’t really be ‘the
Happiest Place on Earth’?
Make a date with Mickey
on Trip 26: Disneyland &
Orange County Beaches.TRIP q
Palm Springs
A chic desert oasis ever
since the early days of
Hollywood and Frank
Sinatra’s Rat Pack. Do
like A-list stars do here:
lounge by your hotel’s
swimming pool, then
drink cocktails from
sunset till dawn. Break
a sweat in hot-springs
spas or on hiking trails
that wind through desert
canyons or mountain
forests atop the head-
spinning aerial tramway
on Trip 34: Palms to
Pines Scenic Byway.TRIPS xy
Golden
Gate Bridge
Sashay out onto San
Francisco’s iconic bridge.
Spy on cargo ships
threading through the
pylons and memorize
360-degree views of the
rugged Marin Headlands,
far-off downtown
skyscrapers and the
speck that is Alcatraz
Island. Get another
perspective on this 20th-
century engineering
feat by driving across it
on Trip 1: Pacific Coast
Highways.
