Death Valley and Mammoth Lakes

On Sunday, 4 September, we travelled once again through interesting scenery, mainly desert, to Pahrump in Nevada. We were heading towards Death Valley but decided to go there on Monday. Had another afternoon relaxing and even visited a Walmart. I was a bit disappointed but it was fun to check it out. There were lots of Halloween things everywhere. We were up early the next day as there were many miles to travel. Death Valley was a strangely beautiful place. There were craggy mountains and salt flats and it was hot. We were lucky as it wasn't as hot as it could have been. In Death Valley we were below Sea level.

 We stopped to take some photos and this coyote was just there on the side of the road!

We then continued our journey to Mammoth Lakes. This is a gorgeous ski resort. We checked out some of the lakes before wandering down to dinner. Our comfy accommodation was just up the road.
