My DD and I are coming to So. Cal. for 13 days beginning June 13, 2006. We are trying to plan and prepurchase as much as possible to prevent having to carry so much cash and/or charge so much to my credit card. Also, I just like having everything planned and booked in advance. It's part of the fun for me.
Anyway, I was discussing our planned trip with some friends who lived in Cal. for several years while serving in the military. They told me that tickets to most of the attractions, DL included, are cheaper if purchased by a Cal. resident. They said that many of their friends in Cal. purchased tickets for their family members who lived across the United States, and when the family came to visit they were able to use the tickets even though they were not Cal. residents. They offered to try to get a hold of some of the friends they still have there and see if they would purchase tickets for me.
Is this something that is really possible? Do Cal. residents really get huge discounts? If so, do they not require Cal. photo id to use?
If I can save a lot of money doing this, of course I want to. What I don't want is to pay for a bunch of Cal. residents tickets and get there in June only to find out that they will not let me use them.
