How was your experience in Palm Springs?

My husband and I went to Palm Springs for our honeymoon. It was so romantic! Niether of us had ever been there before. It was really hot there, but we got used to the heat. We stayed at the 7 Springs Inn & Suites, which was a really nice place! They had a nice swimming pool which was almost right outside our room, and it was open for 24 hours. One of the nights we woke up at 2 in the morning and went swimming! It was very romantic because there was nobody else around and the Palm trees around the pool were lit up. They were very pretty! The hotel was about a mile from downtown, so we ended up walking everywhere, which was fine. I lost some weight because of it, haha. In the downtown area they had horses and carriages, so we went on a carriage ride and got a guided tour of the historical aspects of the city. They talked about where famous people of the 50's had stayed at, pointed out different buildings and talked about them. That same night they had a street fair, and they actually close off the main road! This occurs every Thursday night and they have booths set up, just like you'd see at a fair. It was really awesome, we bought some really good beef jerky at one of the booths. There were also street performers, bands, and people giving out samples of different foods. It was really interesting to see them close off the main road for something like this, especially since I've never seen it before and you don't really see that sort of thing in Washington! On one of the nights we decided to dress up and have a really nice dinner out, so we went to this place calld the Chop House. It was the nicest restaurant I've ever been to, and oh!! The food was amazing!! We were expecting it to be maybe a little nicer than the Olive Garden, but when we got there we realized it was MUCH nicer than that! The waiter even took the cloth napkin and placed it on my lap for me!! Our meals totaled almost $100, but it was well worth it! I don't think I've ever had a better steak than I had that night... So that's pretty much all we did... (besides the normal honeymoon stuff :P) We had tons of fun there and we hope to go back someday! So how was your experience in Palm Springs? Why were you there? What did you do? Did you have a good time?
