Hi,

This is my first post on this site so please be gentle with me. I live in the UK and am planning on travelling to Vegas in September of this year.

We have 2 weeks and would like at some stage to drive to San Fransisco and I am struggling with the best way to do it.

Ideally, we would like to go through Yosemite on the way there and travel some way down Highway 1 on the way back.

I am thinking a one night stay in Yosemite or thereabouts, 2 nights in SF and then another night on the way back. I would also like to visit the Winchester House and maybe Carmel, Monterey would don't really want to drive all the way down to Santa Barbara.

I am also looking for a good value hotel in SF and don't know whether we would be better in the centre or more towards Fishermans Wharf.

I have checked Google Maps and got myself into a complete muddle, well I am female! Can anyone help with any aspect of this trip please. I would be really grateful.

Cheers
Molly
