Eastbound and down....We have begun the eastward part of our journey back to Virginia! Our first day of travel took us through the Mojave Desert as we made our way from California to Arizona. We plan to be spending late afternoon checking out the Grand Canyon, so we are rolling along.
We decided to take Route 66, rather than I40 (the roads parallel each other), for part of our drive today so we can see the ghost towns and famous scenery along the way. We were alone on this road for much of the time (most drivers today use the 40, with its higher speed limits).
We saw some interesting, creepy, deserted places, like the famous Roy's Motel Cafe, and towns that had population signs of 10! Also to note, Joshua trees and a Tarantula crossing the road!! AAHH!! I think that added to the creepiness for sure!
