into downtown LA ? its about 120 miles and takes about 2.5/3 hours ... We had one crappy journey back from Seaworld last year when it took 5 Hours on a Sunday :scared: the I5 is decent road but two lanes in parts.

Agree with Shish kebab - it's never taken us more than 2.5 hrs....., but we only travel at the weekend, leaving SD (Del Mar) before 10 am, LA after 6pm.
Sounds like a fun trip! I love La Jolla, especially Raponggi's - a fantastic restaurant.
