Our family needed a little getaway. We decided to make a last minute trip to the desert for a few days. Palm Springs is a short 2 hour drive away, yet we've only been out there one other time (Labor Day weekend 2008). We had such a great time then and again this week that I don't know why we've waited so long to return. We definitely won't wait 2.5 years to go back.

This trip was all about relaxation. It's been a couple of crazy weeks for us and we really needed a few days to do as little as possible, think as little as possible, etc. We stayed at a small resort hotel in Indian Wells founded in 1957 by Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz - I was sold once I read that and it turned out to be a great place for our family to stay. Location was fantastic, the size of the hotel was just right, the suite worked out perfectly, access to a good-sized pool was easy, our room overlooked the golf course... It worked out really nice for us and we'll definitely stay there again. We ate good food, we played in the pool, we enjoyed the warm desert climate and then we did it all over again and again and again. Fun times!
