On Our Way Home

We woke up in Yuma yesterday morning to a very blustery wind! It was a hard to convince myself to finish my 6K (3.75mi) morning walk but I did it 🙂

After breakfast we finished our packing and then pushed the door open … it was a hard push against the wind … and headed outside to take down our outdoor Christmas decorations 😦 It was sad to take them down but the wind this morning convinced us they would be safer in the shed while we were away for Christmas.

Hubby was shutting off the power to the RV while we are away so I moved everything from the RV fridge into the fridge in the shed.

Once we had battened down the hatches we had lunch and then loaded up the truck and head for Palm Desert, CA. The first part of our ride along I-8 from Yuma to Holtville, where we turned off on to Hwy 115, was very windy but once we turned off the wind died down and it was a nice drive.

We spent the night with hubby’s cousin and his wife and enjoyed a great dinner, a few glasses of wine, and three rousing games of marbles … unfortunately the guys won but we did give them a run for their money!

Now we are sitting at our gate in the Palm Springs airport waiting for our flight home and I can’t wait to see everyone!

Hubby’s cousin dropped off us at the Westjet entrance at the terminal. Once we dropped off our bag we quickly cleared security (we were pre-checked so it was easy peasy) and then head toward the gates. We were surprised when we ended up back outside!

The Palm Springs Airport is very pretty and so easy to get around, although I’m sure it did help that we arrived just after 6:00 a.m. and there was hardly anyone here ☺

We headed up this escalator to our gate. This picture was taken at the top of the escalator looking back toward the main building.

The gates are ahead.

We were treated to a beautiful sunrise once we arrived at our gate. The gates are in a covered area.

Hopefully the next pictures I share have some snow in them, sorry sis 😀

Until next time …
