13.7. 2010, 22.15 Clock, Death Valley Furnace Creek Resort

The trip to Death Valley (http://www.nps.gov/deva/) runs without major highlights, as parched desert landscape, we now know already. Once supplied with 24 bottles of mineral water and some food we meet at 14.00 clock in the Furnace Creek Ranch. The rooms are not already, we could either wait or call every half hour - within the next two hours would then be substantially. As we have already experienced better service.

Never mind, it was so cozy 48 degrees Celsius in Shadow, who would want to have a shower. So we make a short trip, because in the interior of the car creates the air conditioning as much as 35 degrees. We drive to the Artist's Drive with different colored rocks (or should I say more delicate shades of color?) And then the impressive Devil's Golf Course with rugged rock flakes that are still stained with the salt of the former lake. Mordor must be just around the corner and Mia is looking out for Frodo and Sam to be able to donate time refreshment.

yet before we go back to the hotel, check in and find out that there is a pool. If the water is already scarce, it must at least be used for something useful. We use the luxury and refresh with cool 30-32 degrees water temperature. The charge of the waste water is relative, because a sign pointing me out that is irrigated with the spent pool water, the golf course. Well then.

We start early to look at the sunset from Dante's View. The family is snapped, I will start already at 17.30 clock, but the topography seems to me something to help and in the 1600 meter altitude of Dante's View, it has only 32 degrees. The view of almost the entire valley is worthwhile in any case and gives a completely different picture with giant glittering salt flats.

wait Despite pleasant temperature, we do not clock out to 19.45, Sunset at Zabriskie Point, but try to catch. Even severe speeding by some 100 percent does not help and we come to about a minute too late, but the warm light on the higher rocks still impressive.

Back in the room, we eat, given the usual National Park prices brought from the supermarket, but thanks to a bottle of Mondavi and fresh vegetables taste quite well (apart from the typical American sweet spiced dried meat) and the evening sounds of cute and funny. The children say goodbye, look to Star Trek. It all looks from here like on another planet.
