The American Route 66 highway is a road all humans should travel, at least once in there life. It is best to start from Chicago Ill, and take the journey to the cost of California. As old Route 66 is not indicated on maps nowadays, any serious traveler of U.S. Highway 66 needs a detailed map before hitting the road.
This is a trek that may take many trips to cover, because there is an endless list of highlights. Like Chicago, St.Louis, a visit to the St.Louis Arch is a must, Amarillo, Tucumcari New Mexico. Tucmucari is like a lot of tiny towns on route 66 that are struggling to survive, but it still has a feel, history and style that is still well worth the stop. It is the home of the famous Blue Swallow Motel. Flagstaff is also one of my favorite stops. It is a collage town with again so much style and beauty. Gallup is also a must stop. The Indians in the area make some of the best southwestern jewelry anywhere to be found. I once ate at a old Mexican restaurant there while eating the local Indian artists visited the tables to offer there wares. Some might have fount that annoying but I in joyed it very much. And of course there is the old Kingman Arizona and ending at Santa Monica Ca.
I also would recommend taking a venture off of route 66 and drop south of Flagstaff and visit Sedona Arizona it is just magnificent. It is nestled in a cathedral of the most beautiful red rock Just get a friend, a camera and go.
