We spent the last night of our Grand Canyon vacation in Flagstaff, AZ. Flagstaffers, please forgive my ignorance: I had no idea that your city was right smack on the route of Route 66. You'd think the directions from Google maps that said "Continue onto Historic US 66 W" would have given me a clue.Eventually, it did dawn on me that we were on the famous "Get Your Kicks on Route 66" highway, and fortunately we figured it out before the sun set. So we were able to pull over and take this photo. We got tooted a couple of times so I'm guessing that might not have been quite a legal thing to do. I guess I have to apologize to the Flagstaff highway patrol as well. Oops!

Wow ! that's interesting I didn't know that either and we also spent a night in Flagstaff coming from the Grand Canyon and it was in 1971, when I went to the States for the first time to visit my aunt and uncle.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great photo! Yes, they are on 66, along with several other really great places to stop and visit!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun trip! I love the orange tones in the photo :) Happy Thanksgiving!
