Sun Turtle Inn

Dale pampered me again in Palm Springs, this time at Tortuga del Sol. While not a 5-star resort like Hacienda, it is nonetheless charming it is own ways.


Swim, bask, eat, sleep. A perfect recipe for happiness. Too bad Mr. Turtle's all-over tan is not looking as good as mine.

This little guy has GROWN - now at 80 pounds- I just wonder if he knows how big his shell is REALLY going to get - OMG.

Next stop, hospital room. And after that, if I can somehow manage to live in Palm Springs at least part-time, I am so THERE.

The have one pond with the amphibian turtles, and the babies were in a tank in the main house (we did not see the babies). The desert tortoises are in a pen outside. Those are the only live turtles. They also happnened upon a pair of real stuffed desert tortoises that were done taxidermy style about 100 years ago - they are HUGE.
