LA QUINTA CA, CONT...

We've had such an amazing week in La Quinta! We usually come here in February/March when it's cooler (70s & 80s) so it's fun to see it in the usual desert heat that it's known for! It's been consistently in the mid 90s which is really warm for this time of the year but it's bearable because most places have AC (including our fabulous condo) so we don't mind it at all! We've just been planning for it and trying to get out for our hikes & bike rides early and I've really been enjoying walking around the complex that we are staying at. It's really dry here but the flowers are still pretty and in bloom... not as beautiful as in the summer but we can't complain! We've really enjoyed cooking in the condo and have had a few nice meals out as well. It's been a nice and relaxing week for us here and we are really enjoying our time in La Quinta!

Gorgeous morning after breakfast at La Quinta Resort (where we usually stay, right next to where we are staying now!)

I've been enjoying my evening walks!!! All of the palm trees are lit up and it's so beautiful in the complex that we are staying at

Daytime at the Legacy Villas (where we are staying)

Happy Hour & Sunset at Adobe, one of our favorite restaurants at the La Quinta Resort!
