Where is Magic Kingdom?

Ideal: Going to California on an internship, having a car, and doing exciting things with people I meet there such as
  • shopping in Beverly Hills
  • visiting Hollywood
  • getting autographs from celebrities before a movie premiere
  • seeing all the animals the San Diego Zoo
  • going to DisneyLand (You can actually see the park on a relatively high resolution on Google Maps in Satellite view!!!)
  • visiting the infamous prison, Alcatraz
  • taking pictures by the Golden Gate Bridge
  • rollerblading on Santa Monica Beach
  • basking in the sun on Long Beach
Realistic: Going to California on an internship, not having a car, not knowing anyone, and not having the time or the means to do any of the above.


Incidentally, I looked up how long it takes to go from Santa Clara to the following places (by car):
  • San Francisco (1 hour)
  • Palo Alto (25 minutes)
  • San Jose (12 minutes)
  • Los Angeles (5 .5 hours)
  • San Diego (7.5 hours)
  • Anaheim (where DisneyLand is) (6 hours)
  • Pasadena (5.5 hours)
Even with a car, I'd have to spend more than one continuous day at some of these places to get a thorough enjoyment, which, I'm not sure I'll have the time or money for...
