Day 8 - Flagstaff to Albuquerque
I didn't sleep well and was thankful to be out of that Motel! I think there were bugs in the bed!!!!
Breakfast at Dendys and then I hit the road (i40 -east) I stopped at a traditional native indian roadside trading post and bought some goodies!! I loved the pottery and the turquoise jewellery!!
I reached New Mexico and the heavens opened, it rained for ages and there was a thunderstorm!! My trusty stead was very good!!!
Stopped at the tourist information for some accomodation options! They were helpful but not as much as there are in England when it comes to places to stay!!
I ended up in a travelodge, simple and clean and not one of those motels where your door is straight to the outside!! I didn't like that!!
I went to Diner 66 on route 66 for dinner and it was amazing!! All kitted out with rock and roll memorabilia!! I had a purple root beer float and it was fantastic, tasted like bubblegum!! I also had a hot dog with the lot and the biggest gherkin you have ever seen!! Yummy!!
