Palm Springs Day 3

Today was kind of a bummer, do nothing day. John and I woke up and had huge problems with the shower. It was warm when I first got in and then went ice cold. John chose not to have a shower and see if we could get it fixed. So we headed to the restaurant for breakfast, and let the front desk know of our problem. The girl at the desk said she would have someone go and look at it. So we ate our yummy breakfast and then John met with the owners for a meeting by the pool. I changed into my bathing suit and sat in the boiling hot sun with the wives. Which was actually nice and relaxing, and we had a really good visit.

Here are some more photos from a around the Hilton:

When the meeting was over, we checked at the front desk again, but no one had looked at our shower yet, so she promised to send someone right away. By this time we were hungry again, and John was still unshowered so we decided to just eat at the hotel again. I had a BLT, which had a ton of bacon on it, and he had the burger. Both okay, but nothing to right home about. Definitely not as good as the breakfast.When we got back to the room it didn't appear that anyone had been there, so I phoned the front desk. She said that she wasn't sure what happened but she would send someone right away (again!). So we waited in our room and finally a repairman came, and tried to fix it, but he couldn't. So we had to change rooms. At first they were gonna put us in a small room at the back of the hotel, but they came through and actually upgraded us to a little bit bigger poolside room. So after all the time, effort and patience, it worked out.

Even the towels are nicer in this room, they are way more plush!!

It was now about 4pm, so we decided to go to my favorite American department store: TARGET!!! Or as John affectionately calls it Tarjay!

Both of us were a little tired so we finished our shopping, stopped off at Coldstone Creamery for some ice cream, and headed back to the plush bed in our room. John sucked the life out of me watching C-Span for about 3 hours. I understand it was important, because it was about Chrysler, Ford and GM trying to get money from the government and/or deciding to go Chapter 11. But it was sooooooo boring!!

Deee-liiiic-ious!!!!

But after watching that, we went to another of my favorite places: California Pizza Kitchen. Yum Yum Yum!!! I love that place. The 5 Cheese, Fresh Tomato pizza is to die for, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!! I love it, it just melts in your mouth!! John had the spaghetti bolognese with chicken which he really likes too.

All and all a good end to a patience trying day!
