palm springs to vegas

Sunday 30th April 2017
Today we drove from Palm Springs to Las Vegas.  It was only about a 4 hour drive through some really nice desert area.  To start off with we skirted the edge of the Joshua Tree National Park and then keep heading towards Primm where we would stop for lunch.  Had some nice scenery on the way through a valley that had some sand dunes in it to parts of it being covered in Joshua Trees.  When you come out onto the main road near Primm Valley you get a great view of the Ivanpah Solar Power Facility and what looks like bright lights but is actually sun rays being reflected around to one point.  We ended up getting to Vegas by about 5 pm and checked into our Motel Desert Rose.
