(71-73) Palm Desert Vacation

(71)

Sunday we (Christina, Krissi, Tulsi, and myself) headed out to palm desert. We passed through blue cloudy sky, rain, and clear sky. We also drove through city, hills, and eventually arrived in the desert surrounded by palm trees and mountains in the distance.

We stayed at the Marimonte Resort. It is a beautiful place with spanish style buildings.

On the first day we:

- laid out by the pool

-went to souplantation for dinner

-Jacuzzied it up

Our last day :(

I woke up around 9 and went outside on our little patio and read for a little while.

We ordered breakfast from the resort to use up the rest of our $50 worth of room charge.

We packed up and then checked out around 10:30 or so.

We got back to long beach after 1pm.

Christina and I decided that we wanted to get a message. We were able to get an appointment at message envy. It was so great to to end this vacation with even more relaxing and tension release by getting a message.

Now i am home and wishing the vacation could have been longer. Unfortunately, reality has to set back in. The rest of my spring break has to be spent doing laundry, cleaning my room, and doing homework/papers/projects for almost all(4/5) of my classes. I am going to spend my mornings relaxing with a cup of coffee and reading-i have to finish this book this week, otherwise it probably won't happen for a while.
