We walked around Palm Springs during the lunch break from the conference. What a beautiful city in the desert!
Palm Springs has their own walk of fame. Here are some of the more interesting stars that I found.
After the conference, we walked through the night market on the main drag of Palm Springs. There was tons of art and other interesting things to sell.
I got up very early again and went for a ride on my Honda Pacific Coast PC800 up Highway 74 and then along Highway 371. Then I took Highway 79 down to Highway 78 and out through the Anza-Borrego Desert to the Salton Sea where I got on Highway 86. Then I wound through the palm groves around Valerie, went by La Quinta, and then got on Highway 111 to get back to the conference in time for the morning sessions.
The whole route I took is amazingly gorgeous. It was freezing going over the mountains before the sun came up though. Next time I’ll wear my heated riding gear.
I went for a run through one of the neighborhoods near the mountain in Palm Springs before heading over to the conference. What a pretty place!
