Road of Bottles

Another 700km or so under our belt today. I was very happy to revisit Moab Utah, one of my favourite places in North America. It is always a treat to show new people the area. Arches National Park is never a let down.

I'd put more photos up, but a) the connection sucks here and b) you should check it out yourself.

We continued South to New Mexico. We took a detour to see Four Corners, which proved to be a bit depressing. US 160 is littered with beer and liquor bottles on both sides, in fact there was so much broken glass the ditches glittered in the sun light.

The last time I was at Four Corners (8 years ago) it was just a round plaque in the sand, now it is surrounded by small booths that Navajo people can sell their wares and you have to pay to get in. It felt like a bit of a tourist trap now.

We left and made good time to Gallup NM.  Not sure what kind of rest we are going to have here tonight. Their is a very active train line next to the hotel and the toilet keeps making weird noises. 

Amarillo is in our sights for tomorrow. It is about a seven hour drive from here. We hope to see Cadillac Ranch and Amarillo Ramp, two more works by the same person who did Spiral Jetty. The latter may be a bit tricky to find, but we have come this far, it is worth the effort.
