Spring Break Chapter Two: The Drowned Rat Pack goes to Palm Springs

We were all so in need of some warm weather. After the long weekend in cold Yosemite, the 89 degrees that first afternoon was like a sunshine balm. The kids were absolute fishes. We couldn't get them out. Kiera will be swimming without her floaty this summer, I believe. My favorite move was the duck swim that shows up at the end of the movie. A crack up.



The lazy river was a big hit. Those four girls just went round and round and round. It got a little old for me pretty quick, but oh no, not for them.





Taking the tram up to the top of Mount San Jacinto was sweet. Seeing the entire Coachella Valley in one shot was pretty cool. Sure was chilly and windy up top.




Thanks to Marie for hosting us on such a great Spring Break trip. We would love to be part of the Drowned Rat Pack with you again anytime.

Wow....this post makes me want to be a kid all over again. Looks like you guys had a great time. Kiera's swimsuit/floaty is very unique. I have to say I've never seem anything quiet like it. Mount San Jacinto is beautiful and the pics are awesome.
