Route 66
Left Flagstaff and followed Route 66 to Albuquerque. Stopped at a town called Gallup, the Navajo and Zuni peoples major trading centre. If u wanted to buy the beautiful turquoise jewellery this was the place. We were a little worried about getting out and walking the main street. Was not very inviting to say the least so we drove to the El Rancho Hotel, many of the great actors of the 40's and 50's stayed here. It was priceless, the lobby very old western ...

Days 66 & 67 - Baloon Fiesta Campground
... We drove most of the day in companionable silence with random comments about the weather, the road, or whatever nonsense entered our minds. It’s a comfortable place to be. We didn’t have any breakfast, so we cheated and stopped at a local joint in Socorro to treat ourselves to lunch. Jake: Rueben and Fries, Laurel: Chile Relleno and a Beef Taco. We are in New Mexico, after ...
