Where would you go?
Been to San Diego, LA, San Fran, Yosemite, Joshua Tree, Anza Borego and also Las Vegas and Grand Canyon. More than once to most of these.
We have flights in and out of LA (free via work) - but are quite happy to fly domestically elsewhere, or hire a car and drive.
thought about Antelope Canyon - but its going to be v snowy and cold....

Been there too. Loved it for a couple of days. Not sure about a longer stay.
I think I should have titled this where I can fly to from LA for 5 days...
I've been lucky enough to have gone to California about 6 times now.

It’s a 6 hour flight....but mighty tempting.

We have stayed in this area in Feb. It was wonderful! We went up to Santa Barbara and also stayed in Santa Monica. We drove out to Pasadena and enjoyed these areas at a slower pace. The weather was great and there were no traffic jams!
You could consider Phoenix, Arizona and maybe Tucson and then Tombstone for the Wild West. Great weather guaranteed with fewer tourists.

Phoenix etc is looking good. Thank you. Never been to Arizona apart from Grand Canyon

Phoenix area could be good that time of year. Have stayed there in the summer and would love to visit when it’s cool enough to walk in the desert and eat outside in restaurants. The desert is beautiful. I love Arizona.
