girls get-away weekend

This weekend I headed out to Palm Springs for a girls get-away celebrating my long time friend, Ashley's bachelorette weekend! I felt quite due for a weekend out of town and a weekend of good friends, relaxing,  longing at the pool, and great women couldn't have been more perfect. After a yummy brunch at Hash House A-go-go 5 of the 6 headed out on the road from San Diego to Palm Springs. At one point sitting in traffic we got to see this rare sight, a helicopter being towed!


We arrived to the Viceroy around 4:30 pm and were in complete awe of the amazing decor and luxeriousness of the resort! We checked into our villa and immediately changed to swimsuits and scouted out the 3 pools for the best spot to hang till dinner.


The living room...


Bedroom...


Bathroom...with attached walk-in closet (almost the size of my childhood room)


Dining room...


Talk about an amazing unique place! Here is the pool (1 of 3) where we spent the days! (This picture was evening time, these lounge chairs were all usually occupied)


Friday night we had dinner at Matchbox, a resturant with woodfired pizza and great beer menu! Here are all the girls at dinner that first night. Dinner was followed up by drinks and dancing at The Village Pub to a live band!


Saturday we spent relaxing...had a great breakfast at the hotel's resturant Citron, followed by spa treatments (which left me feeling like jello), lying by the pool, late lunch at Citron again, afternoon naps, happy hour in the room while getting ready then off to a Mexican dinner.


The 4 of us have known eachother since elementary school, so crazy!

Tash, me, Ash, Adrienne


These party animals taking tequila shots at dinner! Things got silly after this!


Saturday after dinner we headed to a gay dance club called Tucans. It came highly recommended to us and although probably not something I would recommend to others it was definently a eye opening experience!
Sunday morning we woke up had a great breakfast at Citron again, a little time by the pool and then packed up the villa. On our way back to San Diego we stopped at the Desert Hill Outlets!

Our girls weekend get-away was filled with all things us girls enjoy! I cannot wait for the wedding weekend to hang out with these fabulous women again! Thanks all for an amazing weekend and to Ashley arranging this great time!


Myself with the bride-to-be! Love you Ash!
