we decided to go on VayKay







We took a short break around the July 4th weekend and drove 2 and half hours east of LA into an area called Palm Desert which is surrounded by the Mojave and Colorado Deserts and of course the Joshua Tree National Park. There is just one road to take you there, the I-10. We went to Palm Springs in November so we decided to stay in La Quinta this time, another 20 miles further east.

We stayed in a very lovely hotel resort called La Quinta Spa & Resort. The resort has lots of little 2 story casitas rather than one big building. There are a couple of big pools but most of the casitas have a pool to share between 4-6 rooms, so there are about 40 pools in the resort. Scarlett and Sophie spent more time swimming then sleeping. It is quite a fancy place with lots of tennis courts, a fitness center and a spa. We used the fitness center - spa/tennis next time maybe!
