Shortly after we arrived at La Quinta Spa & Resort, I was mesmerized by this sunset view from in front of our Casita. |

We took a hot air balloon ride over the Coachella Valley. Here's a view looking back at the Eisenhower Mountains, behind which lay La Quuinta. |

When we got home, we got right into setting up Xmas. Zigzag, our 2.5 year old cat, enjoyed playing with our Xmas Magic Express Train this year. He liked lifting the coalman figure off the coal car, and chasing the train around the tree. |
