Room 204 was ready for us on arrival and we took the opportunity to get a little bit of shuteye before heading out for an early dinner. There was no debate as to where we would be going, with a Cheesecake Factory (TCF) 5 mins walk from our hotel.

After our snooze, we got dolled up and walked over to TCF. Sadly, so many of the independent shops at The River (the mall that TCF is located in) have closed down now, so it’s a shadow of the busy place it used to be.
We got a table outside in the shade. It was even hotter than it was when we first arrived into Rancho Mirage, so a table in the shade was perfect.

We shared the stuffed mushrooms as a starter. We then had our normal lunch time salads and I showed my lack of will power by ordering a side order of fries. Interestingly, the waiter put it through as a kids fries order at a cost of $1.75!

We had a quick wander around the mall; we sussed out Starbucks and then headed back to the hotel, where we watched USA which was showing SVU all evening until 8:30 when the lights went out!
