Way back in January (yes, a new record) we took up a once in a lifetime opportunity to travel to L.A. for pennies on a friend's staff discount for what would be our last pre-baby holiday. We picked up a car in L.A. and headed straight out to Palm Springs for 5 days. It was epic...sunshine, 60s US architecture and palm lined streets; I felt like I was living in an Ansel Adams photo.
