Our Life Story | Chapter 28 – The Joshua Tree experience part 1

Hi there again!

Hope you enjoyed the teaser we posted yesterday, because if you did you will probably like this one too. We´ve got some more beautiful photographs for you.

Being in such a cool place as Joshua Tree makes it easy to shoot great pictures.

But let me start from the beginning. After leaving San Diego we had planned to find a campground around the San Jacinto mountain in a village called Idyllwild.

A very nice looking place but unfortunately the whole state of California must have known about it, because the 2 campgrounds we could find were fully booked. Not even 8 by 8 feet room for our small tent.

Since it was already getting late in the evening we booked a motel room alongside the road we we´re travelling to get to Joshua Tree National park. After unpacking our bags for the night we went outside to drink a beer on the staircase while watching the sun going down.

We planned to get up early in the morning around 7 AM to secure a camp spot in one of the most beautiful campground in the park. Just like most things we are planning during this road trip it didn´t quite worked out that way 😊
While enjoying the nice temperature and drinking our beers we met a girl who was staying in the same motel. After chatting with her for about two hours, another guy joined us for a beer and about 1 hour later even more people joined our staircase gathering. It was starting to look like a true Motel party haha.

Eventually we went to bed around 4:30 AM. So as you could imagine we had a rough morning while driving all the way to Joshua Tree. Both with a big hangover and barely 3 hours of sleep, but it was all worth it!

We had a great night and managed to secure that awesome campsite we desired. That day we didn’t do much more than setting up our tent and getting back to our normal selves, that took us the whole day I can tell you…

But still, the day wasn’t over. Follow us to read all about part 2 in Joshua Tree National park!

Thank you for reading, we hoped you like it.
