This is not a mega-plex; it also has a restaurant upstairs that serves good food at reasonable prices. My favorite theatre in Palm Springs. 2300 E. Baristo Rd.

I've had fish tacos at several places in PS. These are the best. Order them a la carte for the best value. Try to be seated on the patio. They also offer generous-sized glasses of wine at reasonable prices. 241 E. Tahquitz Canyon Way.

Sightseeing
The views from atop the mountain are spectacular. There are two dining options: a sit down with great views and decent enough food (that should be tried because, hey, how often are you going to ride a cable gondola to the top of a mountain in the desert?) On a hot day, it's 30-degrees cooler up there, too. You can sit and relax or hike along the trail. 1 Tram Way, Palm Springs

This is a great introduction to the desert. The gardens are more relevant that the zoo, IMHO. Palm Desert is a short drive from Palm Springs. It has a very nice shopping district in case the Living Desert isn't your cup of tea. 47-900 Portola Ave., Palm Desert
