Joshua Tree National Park

I'm finally here.
My dream for a long time has been to visit Los Angeles and its surroundings and this year that dream finally came true. And to get to travel this adventure with of the most funniest and wonderful friends I'm happy to call my friends makes this trip even better. We landed on LAX on Saturday the 6th. It took quite a while o get the car and find our way to our apartment so on Saturday we pretty much just chilled. But on Sunday it was adventure time.
Hopped in our car and headed towards Joshua Tree National Park. Absolutely worth the three hour drive (give or take). The entry fee to the park was 20$ per car. If you know you're staying in the US for longer and national parks are your thing, you can choose to pay 80$ and for a year you can explore all the national parks you want. Crazy cheap!!
Joshua Tree National Park is a desert area with funky trees, desert squirrels, rock formations (for an experienced climber a treat I'd think) and toasty weather. It's extremely hot so bring a lot - A LOT - of water with you. We hiked the Hidden Valley Trail that takes about 45 min and in that heat (about 40°C/100F)
So here are some pics from Joshua Tree :)
