Flagstaff AZ to Amarillo TX – Today we woke up heck of early so we could have an early start. We made it out of the hotel by 6:30am which by our standards is nuts.
We left Flagstaff and hit the road towards New Mexico, target city Albuquerque. I took a bunch of videos on the way and will post some later. We have the classic footage of Lorraine and I not wearing our helmets and riding around.
The ride between Flagstaff and New Mexico was interesting it started to sprinkle and there were a few lightning flashes that lit the morning sky. I looked back to see Lorraine’s reaction and she was knocked out sleeping.
Lorraine took a photo of me clowning around this gas stop. They had these giant arrows poked into the ground.
I just realized we drove through the whole state of New Mexico as we are now in Amarillo Texas. We did get to eat at a BBQ joint in Albuquerque called “Rudy’s” I think I saw this place in what of the television traveling shows. Also cruised around old Albuquerque, I dropped Lorraine off so she could snap some photos of the local native indian dancers.
It seems the further we got from Flagstaff the more barren the landscape became. One thing about Flagstaff is has a lot of National Parks close by and plenty to see.
I’m going to update this later as I’m heck of tired. We rode approximately 630 miles. Damn!!!
