The madness that is Palm Springs

First of all, California is not really what I imagined. It's dry, deserty - with mountains EVERYWHERE! Pretty funky, more of that to come in future posts. But for now, here's some shots of the beautiful Palm Springs. I love this place. It's ridiculously hot, and the people are a bit wacky, but its all good. Here are some of the incredible people I met last weekend:

Now for Palm Springs....

This was the view from our balcony. Beautiful :)

Below is a fun shot from one of our many ice-cream trips. (As I mentioned, its crazy warm here! On one of the hottest days - we attempted to fry eggs on the tarmac, but sadly failed. We did enjoying throwing the rest of the eggs, though.)



The roads Palm Springs are a tad crazy. There are all kinds of bizarre signs and lanes, people frequently dash out in front of you - it's all a bit mad. So, naturally, one had to join in with the madness. Once adjusting to the lack of clutch on a silly automatic car, driving was quite fun --apart from that short time we ended up on the wrong side of the road. but we don't talk about that anymore ;)

In closing, an interesting fact just for you....

Did you know - in Palm Springs fire engines are not red?

Yes, we were as shocked as well.

Fear not, there are plenty more photos to come :)

I hope you are enjoying the photoblog (you really should leave a comment, you know..)
