Route 66

Bob, Karon and Holland follow the Mother Road from Chicago to Los Angeles, detouring to Las Vegas and finishing the trip in San Francisco.

Plenty of planning went into this trip. Flights were booked – in to Chicago and out from San Francisco, a hire car, accommodation along the way and tickets/bookings for some of the attractions. It was a pretty full itinerary but we still had time to explore.

And that's it. Three weeks and well over 3,000 miles. Lots of driving, yes. Tiring at times, yes. Plenty of tourist attractions along the way, but I feel we also got a lot closer to seeing some of the real America too. Or at least a decent slice of it.
