It's all quite rape and DJ sets and stuff these days.

So well, I'm sure that Palm Springs this weekend is a little bit different to how the last weekend. Yes, it's a good just.

Over two weekends in a row and then people stay during the week to do it all. Yeah, there's a great spot. So it takes about two and a half hours to drive there from Los Angeles Airport, pretty much straight out east into the desert to the foothills of the San Jacinto Mountain Range, which is actually such a high mountain range that today I just checked it's thirty four degrees as we speak. But there is snow at the top of that mountain that's right in town that you can just take an aerial tramway wal kilometers long is the aerial part, and there's a cafe and restaurant up there. So that's actually a really great spot where the locals hit when the temperatures get into the forties, which you know, it's only April, so that's going to be happening soon. We actually had had perfect weather there last week. It was in about the mid twenties, so lovely time to be out and about. Yeah. Yeah, you need that when you when you're traveling because you just do so much walking and exploring and you know, suddenly you find twenty five degrees hoof need you need to have a sit down, let alone thirty five and forty five, Thank you very much.

What I love about this area is the Dosher Tree National Park. There's a stunning place.

What I love about this area is the Dosher Tree National Park. There's a stunning place.

Yeah. That takes about an hour drive too, Yeah, and it is stunning and you can actually just drive right through it. You do have to stop and get a ticket for your car and stuff. Those trees look like something out of the Doctor Zoospok. The lore axe or something, you know, and there's lots of little areas you can pull over and part these picnic spots. You can go ab sailing and repelling down the big boulders massive for bottles, or you can just climb up them if you want. That's really amazing, and I'd say get there earlier in the day because that really is the desert. And we got there by about ten am and we got able to drive sort of straight through, but by the time we were leaving, cars were lining up to get into the park. So a good tip would be getting that done early. And then there's a really fun saloon bar called Peppy and Harriet's on the way out, which I would totally suggest pop it in your map and stop there for lunch and just get a burger. And there's got live music and they smoke the meats and it's a really good spot. In fact, you can't make a reservation, so I rocked up with fifteen people and they were like, we've just seated forty, so no, sorry no.

And a lot of golf courses as well, more.

Than a hundred, and you know, we're out in the desert here, so you're talking about the watering system designed by all the pros. So if you're on a golfing holiday, Palm Springs is a great spot. Of course, there's the mid century modern architecture. It's you know, you can do a bit of culture and a bit of a bit of fitness, and you can even go out to the San Andreas fault Line, which about six of the ladies on my tour did and they absolutely loved it, foraging and eating the crispy little leaves. I've done it a few years ago and that's quite fascinating.
