And once again, we make our jounrey with friends, to Joshua Tree National Park.
We make our way down here every year, on the last weekend of May, so that we can experience the desert heat, rock climb on real rocks, take some time away from work, and spend our time with good people. On this trip, our whole family came, along with Boris, Natasha, Yulia, Victor Zybin, Kirk + Caren, Gina + Steven, Mónica + Nuno, Brian, Maya + Steve (this is so I don't forget).
What is Joshua Tree National Park? This is a part of the top of the Mojave Desert - a plateau resting at 1200 meters above sea level, with the temperature lower by 5-10 C, than in the lower part of Mojave Desert.
What is the Mojave Desert. It is a small desert in North America, where many Hollywood movies were filmed. So, if you see a Hollywood movie with a desert, moon, The Martian - then it was in the Mojave Desert, since Los Angeles and Hollywood are only a one hour drive away. Top Gun was also filmed here.

The island Isla del Sol located in the southern part of lake Titicaca at an elevation of 3800 meters above sea level. The island is divided in two parts – the north end the south community. We landed on the north part of the island near the village Challapampa. Challapampa bay is very big and beautiful, with clean calm blue water. There were several cafes on the beach where we had breakfast. The trail started from the beach near a small museum with ancient ceramics and bones in glass cases.
Then the surprises started. Near the museum stood a man who asked us for tickets to go on a trail, but the museum was free. We bought two tickets for 10 Soles and continued on our way. The trail went near a school, between houses and terraced fields. Near the school an old lady in traditional dresse checked our tickets and wished us good luck.
