Palm Springs trip, 2nd day.....

We started the 2nd day of the Palm Springs trip by going to this breakfast/brunch place called Cheeky's around noon. The place was crowded and we waited more than 30 min just to get seated...

There were so many people waiting...even the outside seats were filled....

Billy concentrating on the menu....

Cool orange juice in the beaker....but very small at the same time....


Billy's short rib, kinda salty and chewy I thought....

They claimed to have diff. flavors of bacon, but the only one we could really tell is the spicy one on the left....

My French Toasts were kinda interesting....with Lemon filling in them....

A lot of windmills again while we were driving to Joshua Tree National Park....

This is the main reason we made the Palm Springs trip :)

Here.....bunch of Joshua Trees....The piles of rocks are actually from volcanic movements...

I was surprised there were many people in the national park....I guess they all came for the rocks...

Peeking through :)

Billy doing rock climbing...or pretending to....lol

Such a sunny day....

That is Joshua Tree right there....they can go up really tall....

Many Rock climbers....

@ hidden Valley where there were a lot of huge rocks.....

Looked like a nuclear bomb....

The line in the middle is St. Andrea fault, which is where all the earthquake happens....We were sitting at a view point where you can look over the whole valley....

Look @ that tiny person next to the weird rock....

We had to climb up to the top for this pic :)

Skull rock really looked like a skull....

So pretty with the clouds and blue sky....

There was an area called cactus garden....very dangerous place....lol


Our car "little gray" looks pretty good in the desert :)

That....is actually a sort of tree, not cactus....Very interesting tree with very little leaves and red flowers....


Saw that on the way back to the hotel....guess there was some sort of fire...

Dinner was at Copley's. I fount the place on Yelp with the highest rating and the food didn't disappoint. We finished the day with full stomach and lots of photos :)
