Day 7

Woke up in Bishop, we need to leave early to get to see all of Death valley in the daylight!

It's very cold when we go outside, 23f! We packed our stuff in the car and went for a drive in search of food. At the petrol station the cashier said we should try Jacks waffle house. So we did!

It was packed with people and the staff were really nice. Clare had waffles a, eggs and bacon, and I had a cheese and ham omelette, with sourdough toast and jelly mmmmmm.
We bought a T-shirt each to remember the place!

Then the long drive to Lone Pine and then to Death valley! We arrived at the information centre on the way in and bought some souvenirs and the pass for the park. We drove past the sand dunes, furnace creek and on to Badwater Basin. The views were amazing! On the way back we took the artists drive and saw some very different coloured rocks! Stopped to take photos at Zabriske point (I love it there)
Then swapped driving and Clare drove us in to Nevada and on to Vegas!
We parked in the hotel car park (enormous), checked in and went to our room. What a lovely room!
After a little rest we ventured out to find some food. Eventually ending up in Harrahs, at the "Toby Keith I love this bar and grill" (yes it really was called that!). I had a enormo burger with fries and Clare had chilli and chips! We then wandered back to our room!
