Where can I take my nine year old son in CA for a 3 day trip We live on the east coast and my son constantly ask me to take him to Ca as he thinks it would be a cool place to visit. I would take a few day trip with him but though his perception is Ca is interesting, I'm not sure I can think of three days in Ca that would meet his expectations above and beyond something I could do on the east coast. Any suggestions
