About this blog:
We love traveling. We always capture tons of pictures from wherever we've been and we like sharing our traveling experiences with our friends. So, this is how this blog began - as short stories with pictures in an attempt to share where we've been and what we've seen. Even not stories , but just notes. Nothing serious and big. Mostly I'm writing these stories on a rush and sometimes even don't have time to re-read them. So, I apologize in advance for possible typos here and there. There can be some factual errors or inaccuracies and they even might be corrected one day. Don't hesitate to contact me if you find something that needs to be fixed and don't expect these notes to be a perfect novels ;) The stories in this blog are not in chronological order, but I will try to remember to put the date of the trip. So... welcome to this blog and, hopefully, you will find something interesting and have the same feeling we had when we were there. Let's go...
And... by the way... all pictures and texts in this blog are protected by International and USA Copyright laws, so if you'd like to repost or use something on your page - contact me first.
Using anything published here without permission is violation of the law and... it isn't really nice...

Flowers of the desert

What is the desert... For most of us, the desert is a place where almost nothing can be found. It is not a very accurate description, but... it's good enough, isn't it? In fact, a lot can be found in a desert and the flowers are the most amazing things you can see there. But... honestly... this is not exactly desert pictures I am about to share with you. Just some plants and flowers growing on a small patch of the land nearby. But it still gives you an exact feeling of a desert.

 
The first thing you can see there is the dry cracked dirt. The soil looks absolutely loveless and tough...
But if you can see plants here and there... Small once, but still green and thriving. Isn't it a miracle?



White Prickly Poppy. This flower seems to be born for this harsh and rouge environment and feels just right here.




The Puncture Vine is another plant you are not surprised to find here. It creates a greate web, claiming more and more space and dragging every drop of water from the ground. I'd say - it's a perfect desert flower too (even I am not sure if it can grow in the real desert).



These succulents definitely came from the desert and are well equipped for life with no water and a lot of sun... 

And the poppies again. Never tired looking at them!
