Anyone have suggestions for travel to the other two parks?

I'll be taking the Airporter in November. Nothing gets you in the DL mood better than riding in a big bus with DISNEYLAND painted on it!

Personally I would opt for the San Diego Zoo (believe me, it is increadible, unlike so many other zoos around the globe), Legoland, Universal Studios or Knott's Berry Farm before going to MM, but that's me.
Originally Posted By fantasmaniac Thanks for the suggestions. Sounds like we will probably rent a car for a few days. Yes, we are HUGE coaster fans! My daughters are teens, but they are really little. This is the first year they are both tall enough to ride all of the rides at MM. We go every year and have done the other parks in the area except for Sea World (I havent been there since I was 12) and we are ready for something new.
