A last minute trip is something we all need from time to time. The weather in Seattle has continued to be indecisive going from cloudy, rainy days to decent but not overly warm days. I was looking for a quick escape to a warm place that allowed me to disconnect for a few days and that meant jet-setting off to a weekend with the boys. This trip was all about getting full summer vibes and crazy heat, 107 degrees to be exact, to start the season of vacations off right.
Palm Springs, California is the stomping ground for a few event such as Coachella and Stagecoach and a destination for many during the summer months. During that time, the city is alive and raging day and night, but this was not the case for our boy’s trip. We wanted to escape the busy work life and rushing city of Seattle to a poolside, let me hear my own thoughts, kind of trip. It’s important for each and everyone of us to take that break from the daily grind to recharge and let our mind, body and soul relax and find peace for a few days. Palm Springs has some great Spanish architecture and smooth colors that gives off a desert western feel. The Airbnb we stayed had a great pool and hot tub where we spent most of the hours lounging around like iguanas in the sun. There were plenty of bars and restaurants to enjoy during the days and evenings for great meals and happy hours. We were fortunate enough to also find an interesting destination: this mirage or glass house that we found 15 minutes out of town. The view from this beautiful place allowed us to see the entire city while taking in the deserts plains and what felt like dangerous, uncharted land. My recommendation would be to go just before they close because the sunset hits the building just right and projects amazing colors out in to the desert. So as you can see this post is just a quick flashback to a fun boy’s weekend, designed to let readers know that its important to disconnect for a few days every once in a while. Bring a book to read, listen to some music while floating on your flamingo in the pool or explore the city- whatever you need your quick getaway to entail. It will help you come back as a new person that is ready to tackle the grind and allow you to see things a bit more clearly. Hope you enjoy the read and photos.
