Thru the bathroom...a courtyard with an outdoor tub!! Of course, I immediately jumped in.
Sanctuary Pool at Night...from their website.
The first night we got gussied up...I debuted my new Pisces necklace I bought from fabulous blogger Judy at Atlantis Home. She and her ridiculously fashionable daughters have a new vintage online mecca called Plain Objects that is very worth checking out.
Off we went...I had made reservations at BLT Steak...dinner menu here. We tried the Kobe beef...my second time...and I was really disappointed. It does say right on the menu that they char their steaks, but it felt like a sacrilege to turn Kobe into ash. Broiling at 1700 degrees will do that, wont it? The restaurant was beautiful...pics here...and the apps., sides and dessert were superb...just the beef was a disappointment. The Manhattans were sublime!
Next Day...Easter. Being the Heathen I am, Easter means eating and drinking all day and hoping that I don't see the Donnie Darko rabbit in my fevered dreams.
We decided to sleep late...have brunch by the pool and try every single cocktail on their fabulous drinks menu...with Dolce as our designated driver.
Brunch: 
After trying every cocktail on the menu...back to the room and the tub!
Sober again...
Our last day was spent driving around Scottsdale, checking out the sights. If The Main Man's car service hadn't been so ridiculously expensive, I would have bought one or two of the amazing wind chimes from Cosanti Originals. Read more about Paolo Soleri and his Arcosanti Project . It's really amazing. These bells are definitely on my Covet list. The first one sticks into the ground and the second one hangs. Are they not the coolest chimes you have ever seen??!!
I've seen this tile "rug" in a design book, but for the life of me, I can't remember which one.
