M+M rented a house in Palm Desert for the week of Nov 11th to 18th (Sat to Sat) and everyone except Greg were able to get on the same WestJet flight. Greg followed later on in the day on a flight from Calgary.
So now all 9 of us (Caro,me Lisa,Greg,Mike,Michelle Hannah, and Vanessa/Nathan).
We are in a 5 bedroom house with a pool and hot tub (oh yah!). We have three rented vehicles with Lisa and Greg sharing a Jeep Grand Cherokee with us. We rented our vehicle through Costco travel and got a great deal. We had rented an Escape but upon arrival at the rental desk we were informed that they didn't have an Escape right there but could have one driven over in 15 minutes OR for $5/day more per day we could get a Grand Cherokee. Ummm,"no I can wait" and so after a quick behind the scenes discussion between Avis employees they "decided" to give us the Cherokee at our original cost. Ha ha. I told the employee ; "nice try on the up sell". Too funny.
Lisa has paid for cell phone roaming charges and we have used that for getting around but I have purchased an app for the area that may make getting around easier.We'll see.
We were all in the pool/and or hot tub enjoying adult beverages in the morning while Hannah has a nice long nap.
Great fireworks show last night before Lisa and I went to pick up Greg at the airport and then an early evening to sleep until Hannah woke us up at 0500 (the kid has a great set of lungs) but we all went back to sleep including Caro who had taken Hannah to another room so M+M could get extra sleep.
