We woke by 6 A.M. and got ourselves mobilized. It was our first morning of the re-pack/re-load process and it wasn’t pretty. What was fabulous was the massive breakfast they offered. Every palate was pleased as we ate and ate. It was awesome.
We got started – later that we wanted – (this will become a repeating theme) – and headed from Fort Smith, AR to Albuquerque, NM.
It is essentially a straight line through Oklahoma, the Texas panhandle, and into New Mexico. Sights thrilled us as we took in places we’d never been before. But we didn’t stop, per se.
We played some games, read some books, watched some movies, and just kept moving.
We stopped at Walmart for more food at lunch time and enjoyed crispy fried chicken, potato salad, and cookies.
West, west. west. We just kept moving west.
We drove directly to Dickey’s BBQ pit in Albuquerque for dinner.
We were dumbfounded when we were told they were closing because they were out of meat and sides. Really.
We tried to find something fast… and it wasn’t fast. We ended up at Outback Steakhouse and spent way too much money and time. We barely got to the hotel in time for a quick swim for a few of us.
Katriel fell asleep as we headed to the hotel. She stayed asleep through bed changes and well into the morning.
