Snow in Palm Springs

After giving my parents a quick tour of San Diego, revisiting areas they have already seen, we took them over to Palm Springs.
It took nearly 2 hours to drive to Palm Springs.  It was a chilly morning but everyone was excited to ride the tram to the top of the mountains.  Carl, Elena and Papa waiting for our tram.
Here comes our tram!  Look, snow at the top of the mountain!!
Walking with Grandma down the trail...to find our own patch of snow to play in :)
Making a snow ball!
Gotcha, Papa!
I'm going to get you, Elena!
More snow balls!!
Snow is so much fun!
Especially when you get to throw it at each other.  
Look at the glee on their faces just after clobbering Papa.

This is the best I could do for a group picture.  Elena was not interested :(
The sun was a bit bright but gorgeous!
Cold, wet...all done.
