Nov 14/2018 Weather sunny, 77 and 55 at night. Everyday is a picture perfect day here.
We were heading out to get on our bike when we noticed we had a friend running around and around the coach. Roadrunner!!! He is hilarious. We see him everyday. He is quite bold and doesn't mind telling us what he thinks. But take a step towards him and can he ever run!
Next to Indio is La Quinta which is known as a resort city. The old downtown section is beautifully kept. Flowers, an old square, pretty spanish style architecture.
Nice restaurants, walk around shopping in boutique stores and we found a very unusual ice cream store too.
Everyone asks if you have been to Stuft's; so we gotta go. It is restaurant where you can create just about any kind of fire oven pizza you can think of or have one of the chef's gourmet combos. They have a Napa Valley creation that has Canadian bacon, applewood bacon, carmelized onions, brie cheese, mozarella cheese, apples, mango sauce. Yes apple slices, isn't that cool? Oh it is so yummy. Billy got the Maui. We were going to share but I think he only had one piece of my Napa Valley..... It was so different.
After we walked around town checking out the store fronts we just had to double back to get some liquid nitrogen infused ice cream. Never heard of it before. Billy is quite familiar with liquid nitrogen at the Dr.'s office. Our curiousity had us inside ordering a salted caramel and strawberry cheesecake to go. They make the ice cream while you wait. -320 f makes it fresh and fast and no ice build up. Quite good. It was not smoking anymore when we got our cup of ice cream to go; all safe to eat.
Quite happy and stuffed to say the least. What a beautiful town square and the mountains in the background. It looks like a postcard doesn't it?
