I haven't yet booked my Jet Blue tickets to/from Long Beach. If I book the flights I mentioned, I'll be able to see DLR until closing but will waste some hours in the morning dealing with transportation and checking in to the hotel OR I can go the next day and start as soon as the parks open and leave an hour before my Long Beach flight back to San Francisco (and miss some hours before the parks close and be stresses out
about catching that flight back to SF).
Now, if I do this (one of the above two options), I will have four whole days for seeing San Francisco and I don't think there's four days of stuff to fill. So, another option is to stay in S. Cali longer. The longer I stay, the more the airfare back jumps up. $80 if I go back on the 28th and over $100 if I go back on the 28th. There's so much more to do in S. Cali that I need to decide if its worth the extra money in airfare if I stay longer, plus I'll have the peace of mind of being able to spend a full day at DL without stress! What would you do?
