10.29.2011: Palm Springs Tram

For my birthday, Mom & Dad were going to surprise me and take us (including the out-of-town visitors) up to the top of the Palm Springs Tram for drinks & apps on Sat night....but Vince isn't great with surprises and I kinda found out :)  Oh well....we all headed out to Palm Springs for the evening.  We headed up the tram right at sunset so the views were gorgeous!!  The colors of the desert were amazing.  It was cold, but not yet freezing...so it was really nice!  Perfectly clear day too....

At the top, we walked around a little and enjoyed the views....then had some drinks and appetizers at the restaurant/bar there.  It was really nice and we had a great time chatting and enjoying the evening.  We stayed up there for a few hours then headed back down.  We were planning to go "out" in downtown Palm Springs, but by the time we got down, and drove around the town for a while, we decided to skip it and head home!  It was getting late and we were all exhausted from the long day.  It was a great birthday surprise though!!  We had a blast!!!
