Today's Route
332 miles
6:48 pm
The internet here in Albequerque is not working very well at all. Hopefully I'll have Day 5 pics up tomorrow.
5/23/10 - Denny's has some pretty quick wireless. Here are some pics from yesterday:
Don't mess with it
Everything is bigger in Texas
Everything is also flatter, at least in the panhandle
Not much around this part of the drive, there were a few hills in the distance on the west side of the panhandle
Starting to get hilly
Some snow capped Rockies in the distance
Old Town Albuquerque, the original part of the city. Pretty much a tourist trap.
But they had a Mariachi band, so they have that going for them
Nob Hill part of Albuquerque, pretty interesting part of town
Kelly's Brewpub, where Maddy and I had dinner

Pretty long drive today. There is NOTHING in New Mexico between Texas and Albuquerque, it actually reminded me a lot of central Australia. It was also ridiculously windy, driving into the wind I couldn't get the Jeep above 60 mph. Also, I can't imagine doing the drive without Sirius. It makes the time fly. Even got to listen to the Flyers game at the end of the drive. Heading to Phoenix tomorrow where I'll be staying with a friend.
So how did Maddy like the camping experience?? Maybe she'll want to be a hiker and camp all the time!! Loving the pictures and all the commentary! Enjoy the rest of the trip
ReplyDeleteDoes Maddy have her own sleeping bag?
