In April we took a long and winding road trip to California for my sisters wedding and other adventures. These photos are from Day 1 (16.5 hours in the car) and Day 2 (10.5 hours in the car). I know I have said it before, but our children are “Road Warriors” and such good travelers.
Our first stop was at the Herring Coffee Shop in Vernon, Texas. It had good reviews and was the only place for miles. It was tiny and delicious. And they loved our girls so much that they sent us on down the road with some of their fried pies. Oh my goodness! They were amazing. Dani the foodie gave it a thumbs up, especially the thick cut bacon.
After driving for what felt like forever we made it to New Mexico.
One of many potty breaks.
I tried to work on Dani’s blanket while Mike drove.
Crossed into Arizona and kept heading for Flagstaff. We stayed the night at a Choice Hotel there and tried to get some sleep after such a long day.
Halfway through day 2 they were beat.
The second day was much harder than the first even though it was shorter so we made a really long stop for the girls to get the wiggles out. They had a great time climbing all over these rocks. Then we made our way on to California.
