Where to visit in California?

im too lazy to win best answer but i want to help. stay out of central california. and all thats in anaheim is disneyland. SF, LA, SD is where you want to go. also santa cruz is small, but i strongly advise checking it out for a day or 2. i dont know SF too well but santa monica is a great spot to stay in LA. in san diego you should stay downtown or in la jolla. or pacific beach if you want to party?
