Google Doodle - Route 66

i prefer route 69. but u.s. 66 was hollywood’s favorite highway when it was first commissioned in 1926, 20 years before the interstate system was started (ike was cinc in europe during ww2 and saw, liked, and copied the autobahn in defeated germany). as the highway ends on the west coast in santa monica, it has the hollywood vibe. it runs from
chicago to santa monica. i was partly on the highway on the reverse route, i.e. going east northeast. the furthest i drove was from l.a. at the 101 intersection via barstow towards las vegas at the 91 intersection and then towards kingman and flagstaff in arizona. i veered off 66 and decided to go to the south rim of the grand canyon from flagstaff. never drove all the way to chicago. it’s a long 2000-mile circuitous route from az to nm to tx to ok to ks to mo and finally to il. if auntie ginger wishes to join me on the next drive let me know, and we can take the porsche for a multi-state spin.
 
the most beautiful route imo is highway 1 as it hugs the west coast. pacific ocean on one side, mountains and lush coastline on the other. convertible is the best for this route as climate is perfect in spring and weather is dry, cool, yet sunny. can’t drive fast as it’s windy and windy.

with crazy drivers these days on freeways after 2 years of xia xuay xi virus bikes are not safe. moreover, truckers in big rigs ply both higways and interstate freeways. they are always sleepy and stressed with fewer drivers on long routes.
 
I wonder if there are adventurous sinkies who have travelled the entire Route 66 ? Any retirees withdrew their CPF and spent it on Route 66 ?
