Balmy Palmy Springs

So we hooned out of the big smoke and across to the desert town of Palm Springs. As regular readers of my blog will know I have already been here on this trip with a friend and I was looking forward to returning.

Last time we stayed in a couple of hotels, but this time I hired a 3 bedroom place for me and my folks, just a couple of miles from all the action. All I can say is WOW! It was brilliant. The decor was 50s style and in keeping with the architectural style of the house. I was allowed the en-suite for booking the place, and I had my own little garden with a view of the mountains.

There was a swimming pool, fire pit, bbq, secret garden, beach and outside dining and living room areas AND our own lemon tree, all for the bargain price of $235 per night. Now obviously there were only 3 of us, but it could sleep 7. Imagine how cheap it would be then?!

Anyways here are some photos of our fabulous abode. I swam 4 days out of 5 in the heated pool, which I have to say was more enjoyable when it was 75 degrees air temperature, compared to 57 degrees air temperature!
