Christmas in California ... celebrating our 25th anniversary

For our 25th anniversary, Tim and I spent a night out in Riverside, California at the Mission Inn. As hoped for and expected, we had a lovely time.

We went out early and had lunch out on the patio; cool and sunny day.  At the entrance stand two giant nutcrackers, with moving arms.

We had a beautiful room up on the 4th floor with interesting mission architectural features, overlooking the Spanish patio. Here is a view from our doorway at night with the lights:

 

 

And a photo of the Mission Inn lobby.  The place is packed in the evenings, with people coming to view the lights and decor.
