October/November Honeymoon in the USA

[giveherlong]

Heading on the Honeymoon at the end of October this year. Thinking of going to California/San Diego direction first (maybe take a trip to Vegas ) and then finishing off with a few nights in NYC. Any recommendations for these areas or anywhere else in the states at that time of year? What would the weather be like?

Great spot! I have a few travel books I can lend you 

We did Vegas, up to Lake Tahoe, SF, down the coast to LA, and then the highlight at the end, Palm Springs. Great chilled out place with warm temps - we went in Sep and it was 35 or so. Nice weather all over Califonia in Sep.

Drive from San Diego to Palm Springs is pretty short and it's another do-able drive to Las Vegas. Just a suggestion for something different.

As an alternative to California, Florida Keys and Miami would also be nice and warm.

Oct/Nov is the tail end of the hurricane season. That is usually off season and you can get good deals. The odds of getting hit by a hurricane are pretty low.

If you're heading for Vegas, 2-3 days would be plenty. The helicopter ride to the grand canyon is a good experience. NYC is a nice place to finish but very hard to get decent accommodation at a reasonable price.

California has everything. Just a few highlights of mine, Yosemite, Kings Canyon, Sequoia national parks, paso Robles wine country, Big Sur, Hwy 1 drive, Coastal towns (Pismo, Morro Bay, Santa Barbara, Carpinteria etc) and San Fran. Never been to San Diego but is the next on the list. Drop me a line if you have any questions.

October might be a good time to go, the California parks and other inland locations are a tad hot in summer. The coast is fine all year round.
