How are you going to get around LA? It will be very challenging to see much without a car. You might need to get a regular car for a few days prior to picking up your RV.

Monday - pick up RV then make our way to San Diego. We hope to stay in around San Diego - if anyone has recommended places to stay (RV parks) that's be good. Also I know its not far to the Mexican border - is it worth a visit to Tijuana? Are we able to cross the border easily enough or do we have to sort anything beforehand?
You will not be able to take your RV into Mexico but you can easily take a bus into Tijuana. Is it worth it? Sure. I'm unclear on foreign visitors leaving the US and getting back in on your travel visa. I think it's OK but you will want to double-check on this to ensure you don't get stuck in Mexico.

Tuesday hit the long drive to Tombstone for the night, is there anywhere else round here worth checking out staying for the night?
Yup...lots of places. Tucson and Bisbee (a bit south of Tombstone) are great. At almost 500 miles, you will have a few hours for sightseeing this day but not too many. Especially if your plan is to get into Tombstone in time to enjoy the Earp stuff. If you have time, you might enjoy a stop in the Sonoran Desert National Monument where you can enjoy the saguaro cactus and more.

Weds drive to El Paso and stay there for the night.
This is a fairly easy drive of about 300 miles. You might want to head NE a few miles at Las Cruces to take in White Sands National Monument.

Thurs- Another monster drive to San Antonio, via Fort Stockton. Stay in San Antonio for the night.
Fri - drive to & stay houston
Your drive to Houston is a pretty short driving leg. Are you planning on spending some time in Houston? The NASA stuff at the Johnson Space Center is pretty cool.
Quote:
Sat - Drive to & stay in New Orleans
Sun - Drive to & stay in Panama city
Both of these days are about 350 miles so you should have some time to enjoy New Orleans in the evening and, again, the next morning. You won't get to see a lot of NOLA during that time but it should give you time to take a taste of it. Of course, the French Quarter is a must.

Mon - Drive to Orlando via Daytona Beach
Tues - Theme parks, stay in Orlando
Unless there's something specific in Daytona Beach that you must see, you could shave off some miles by going through Gainesville/Ocala. If you're just anxious to get to a beach, I would save it for the Orlando-Miami leg.
I have no idea how you will see even a smidgen of the theme parks in the Orlando area in just one day. But I'm sure you'll have fun trying. Good luck with that.
