Route 66 is an old historic road that starts in Chicago and ends in Santa Monica, which we visited earlier in our US trip.
We drove on Route 66 from Lake Havasu to Kingman.
At Lake Havasu there’s London Bridge. When the Americans bought it they thought they were buying Tower Bridge from London!
The next stop was Oatman. This donkey that I am feeding and all of the other donkeys in the town are descendants of the gold miner’s donkeys.
Next we went to the saloon for lunch. Before gold miners went on their expeditions they wrote their names on a dollar bill and then stuck it behind the bar so when they returned they had some credit. I pretended I was a gold miner and stuck my own money on the wall.
While we were in town there was a wild west-style shoot out between two cowboys who were greedy for gold (the guy on the right won).

Quite a journey….and lots of interesting descriptions.Glad you did not get caught in the cross fire during the shoot out! I see the mule had its ears right back which is often a warning sign of a grumpy donkey ready to kick or bite.Obviously it would be pleased when you gave it food.
Tonight we will watch route66 with the Hairy Bikers so will look out for you.
