Nostalgic Palm Springs

Downtown Palm Springs
Dec 15/2018  After soaking in the Sunnylands Estate we popped over to old downtown Palm Springs.   Palm Canyon Drive is perfect for strolling and when your not strolling it is perfect for people watching too.  We walked.  Snooped.  Watched.  Ate.  Walked again.  Palm Trees hang over the sidewalks and Mount San Jacinto shadows the drive.   There is so much show biz nostalgia in Palm Springs. 
The Riviera Hotel where Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack hung out
You can take any number of tours to see the famous players that had homes here away from their hectic life.  We took a modern architect home tour a few years ago while here and it was excellent.  But today we are just spooking around and having a bite to eat where the Rat Pack liked to hangout .  And don't forget to look down at your feet.  The sidewalk is full of stars!
