Yep! We’re still watching you two! 😍🇦🇺
Seems like a reasonable use of your time 😉
You're not alone!! 🤣🤣🤣
yep! ❤ me too! 🇦🇺
Hi from Aus, wow guys, that petrified forrest, just wow.. “such a fine site to see”
As an Aussie, I’ve done various road trips around America and they are fantastic, I did one through Arizona, Nevada and Utah, staying in Navajo Nation, seeing the national parks and attractions of the states and it was memorable, something I’ll never forget 👍
Aussie here 🦘 Really enjoying your travels.
Metric conversions, it really helps !! 👍👍😁😊
Hello from Perth , Western Australia, still watching 🤪
The desert park with the gorgeous rock colours and petrified tree trunks was astounding! Yep big wide country like Australia. Wishing you well from OZ ❤
I have to say when you were in New Mexico, the geography reminded me so much of outback Australia. I love following you guys.
We hear you, red rocks and green plants with the occasional water hole oasis's is as intimidating as it is pure beauty. You guys really do need to finish the lap. From the Kimberley to the Gasgoyne down the Coral coast is as every bit as brutal as it is stunning, you gotta do it.
I'm enjoying this Route 66 series so much... it makes me want to do a trip like that one day. Keep it up!
I've been on a holiday of my own the last three weeks or so and I couldn't wait to get back and start catching up with your videos...they bring such a smile to my face...generally several times at least through each one. I'm a desert lover also and so really liked what you showed in this vid.
“Those roads provided breath-taking views. There's something special about an empty road going on and on and on to the horizon where the sun burns the world away into a dancing, shimmering heat haze that reflects the crystal blue sky, literally blurring the line between heaven and earth.” - Dave Gorman
Not sure what you were looking at but 'murica hasn't given me anything stunning so far. Just all looks drab, boring and downright depressing - absolutely zilch to make me want to go there... 😕
The landscapes are stunning. Great photography & drone work. 😊 Love the banter, too 😉
I think you are right ,a lot of that country does look like outback Australia ,to me its very similar to near Winton Queensland.
Arizona is more like the Pilbara then the Kimberly. You're right, the Kimberly is much wetter, it's a savanah tropical climate, it rains in feet in the wet season. And the humidity is off the charts with the oven desert, emwitj oven like desert heat smacking into it from the Pilbara mixing with the tropics.
I am amazed at the miles long trains that appear in the background early on in the video.... they are insanely LOOONNG !!
Loved the landscape on this episode. Guys please come back to Aus and do The Kimberley and The Ningaloo, you will be blown away by their beauty ❤❤
I'm from southern California and I grew up thinking the desert was not pretty at all. I changed my mind the first time I drove cross-country and saw part of Arizona, Utah, and New Mexico. Gorgeous!
7:03
If I ever reach the Continental Divide....I will raise my hands and yell "The Continental Divide!!!" in honor of Tia !!! 🤣
I hope you send a video!
I really love the slow pace of stopping and having a look at a seemingly not grand tourist attraction, but a lot of historic places. I would never have looked up a vlog about Route 66 on my own; I started watching during your vlogmas-series and got hooked.
Also, what an absolute boss Donald is. That's so kind!
Very kind man 😊
Another great video guys and I'm so jealous you stood on the corner of Winslow , Arizona having seen The Eagles twice! Petrified Forest was amazing :) Again the extra camera placements and drone work ..nice !! Question: When doing drone overheads of your vehicle moving is the drone being operated whilst you are in the car or is one of your driving away etc...? Route 66 is standing up nicely and the towns are looking as I had imagined. Happy Trails :)
Hey! Whomever is in the passenger seat will pilot the drone in those shots.
20:50 I'm pretty sure that's a flat bed Ford. If we could have gotten Tia behind the wheel, the lyric "there's a girl my Lord in a flat bed Ford, slowin' down to take a look at me" would have worked out for Cheveryo 🤣
Don't forget, as with virtually all of the Eagles biggest hits, Take it Easy was originated and co written with someone else; in this case with Jackson Browne. 😊
Great video and thanks for introducing me to the music artists you used in this video. 👍🏻
If only Tia appears in future videos, we'll know he tried to scare her, and she took him out... 😂😂😂
Hehe 😎
😂..I thought the same thing 🤣
Now he's haunting the hotel as well. Living the dream.
@@dragonzord6615 😂
At 15:20, the red scenery looked like Central Australia.
Waiting your video on youtube every day. Still follow you two, Thanks a lot...
Wow, the petrified forest was out of this world.😍Enjoy ALL yr vids!! Love from Oz.
yes two vids in a week awesome hope the trip is really fun also great earrings
Really enjoying this series - it’s been quite the interesting education!
In Aus jerky is readily available and we have a variety of interesting flavour options - especially in the Northern Territory - Buffalo, Emu, Crocodile, Camel and Kangaroo!
Love the Eagles and ‘Take It Easy’ is a favourite so it was awesome you stopped at Winslow!
Nice to see you excited and proud about your home state!
Interesting fact - Route 66 is only just slightly longer in distance at 3940 kms than Sydney to Perth at 3934.4 kms
Just stayed in Sedona for a few days. Thought of you guys. Loved the red rocks, hiking, and sitting by Oak Creek!
Loved Sedona when we visited. Such a lovely setting and great little shops. Came home to Oz with a handmade glass saguaro cactus. That red rock country is so beautiful.
The petrified forest is wonderful !
Great episode, thanks
It’s so much fun watching you guys doing route 66.
I recently got back from the US after doing the Santa Monica to Flagstaff section. There was so much cool stuff to see staying off the I40 interstate as much as I could. I hope you’ll check out Amboy and the Amboy volcanic crater field. And get the clam chowder at the Ludlow cafe. It will be interesting to see what places you stop at which I may have seen. And I hope you can stay at the Wigwam motel in San Bernardino.
Happy and safe travels to you both.
The world tourist has spoken, " really well preserved gas stations" has to be the best line ever used by Tia. ROFL. Can't wait for the next video
That's the only place I went to in US, Arizona. I stopped at LAX and Denver airports... but flew into Tucson to visit a friend. My first tourist visit was to the Sonora Desert Museum. I visited Flagstaff, flew over the grand canyon, visited Phoenix, visited Tombstone. I went to Mexico for a day. Boy that was in my early 20's and I'm now in my 50's. I'm in Perth WA. I'd love to go back to US, but my health isn't good. There's probably no chance of me travelling again I think. I love watching you guys travel the globe.
👍😊👍 Nice drone shots!
Videos getting better! Epsecially the audio :)
Really love how you are feeling so at home. When you finish your big travelling adventure you already have an incling of what it is that makes you feel settled about country. That's not to say you may not settle elsewhere. Hope you get a chance to catch up with family and friends.
Perth is the spot we both want to settle, if we can manage it 😊
@@OnePackWanderers we would love to see you settle in Perth.
Very correct about the red escarpments in the continental divide. As soon as I looked at the view I saw our magnificent Kimberley here in Aus!
There are petroglyphs in the Pilbara that are thousands of years old. You have to come back 🙂
May and June is the best time, and of course see the whale sharks in Exmouth.
Beautiful scenery in Arizona. I must agree with Tia about the the thought of the pertified trees being around when the dinosaurs roamed the earth. It is mind boggling to think about that.
After so long, I'm sure it feel great to be back in familiar territory. Travel safe ❤
best part of route66 series :)
At 7200 ft, the elevation of the continental divide is the same as the peak of Kosciusko in Australia.
Enjoying riding along with you 😊 and have named your car yet 😊
Arizona , the home of winding canyons and meanderin rivers , superb vid , Thank you
I stayed there too!! Parked our Mustang out front. Was so cool. Love the videos team.
great view of the forest.
Keep up the good work and take it easy ✌️
You guys are awesome
Those desert colors are so gorgeous.
I agree with you about deserts, beautiful and fascinating. And not just like the Kimberley, but a lot of outback Oz
Cheveyo is right ... I have been told by an "expert" that ... a clean car is a happy car, and we all know a happy car is a fast car! 😉🙃
Greetings from NZ 😊 !!!
On your Aussie trip you would likely have seen Great Dividing Range signs. That's our equivalent of the Continental Divide except its closer to the Pacific, running in roughly a huge J from near the Grampians, skirting just north of Melbourne, through the Snowy Mountains, Goulburn, Blue Mountains and right up to far North Queensland (north of Cairns). You crossed it a number of times on your trip, often without realising 😉
Jerky is definitely the best road trip snack!
I was about to ask you how does this desert region compare to your outback desert travels in Australia, then you said it’s very similar to the Kimberleys. Awesome!
The next time your in Gallup- go up to Window Rock and Fort Defiance- I believe you would enjoy the sidetrip!
Very interesting vlog. Surprised at how similar parts of the landscape are to Australia. The petrified forest is amazing. You have every right to be biased about your home turf.
10:00 Continental divide 2194m, Mt Kosciuszko 2228m. A bit different in the weather at that elevation this time 😉 (but still no socks!)
I think most people know Route 66 from the song originally written by Nat King Cole, with the King Cole Trio, first recorded the song in 1946. But about 1961 Chuck Berry rock it up and I think that version cemented the song and of course that wonderful road through the USA. I travelled the whole length of 66 back in 1984 and that song was going around in my head the whole way.
Tia’s new earrings are lovely 😍.
Great video! Just found you 2 yeterday and have binged through some of your more recent vids. Have you ever been to the Midwest...Minnesota perhaps where I'm at now? Just curious...looking forward to seeing your future travels.
Have never been to Minnesota. That area looks absolutely stunning in the summer, I hear!
Yes...especially the North Shore of Lake Superior. I'm guessing you'd love it. It's also stunning in FALL and really peaceful and underated for Winter. Spring you can have...haha. Cheers!@@OnePackWanderers
Yep, this Australian is still watching ☺
Greets from Finland! Digging your journey. Budville Trading Co. stop kinda gave me the movie ’The Hills Have Eyes’ vibes.. in a good way..if possible :) Anyway, keep on trucking ♥️
I love the Southwest so much, it's so beautiful! You guys should go to South Africa, Namibia and Botswana, I feel like you would love it! Namibia definitely has Arizona vibes in many parts. Plus Cheveyo will love biltong I am sure lol.
Yay! Tia for Scale at 19:56 but rather than a 10 I must downgrade you to a 9 since there were several things in the scene such as the red ford pickup to use for scale. Of course, Tia is more interesting. Loved the video!
It is more like the Flinders Ranges in South Australia. Beautiful
Yes, very similar to the northern section. And the painted desert part to an area of the same name near Coober Pedy.
@@Wdeane1957 That is also a beautiful area
As an Australian who grew up in the US, it makes me sad to see how it is now. This whole series is pretty depressing.
…the food is a good distraction 😂
To be fair, Route 66 is known for being exceptionally desolate/abandoned 😅
Driving through Western Queensland recently in Australia gives the same vibe. Small towns are dying unfortunately and it is a tad depressing
My sister was married in Flagstaff Arizona!
I really enjoy watching you Guy’s 🎉
I love you 😍
Great video as usual. So confusing reading a map when it says route 66 is road number 40. Dunno why it's so hard to get jerky in Oz.
Yea the further West you go, the more R66 is more or less just I40.
19:20 You should be standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona, and Tia is such a fine sight to see! 🙃
There are so many national parks in that part of the country, you might get a year pass. About $90, so if you do 4 parks, it's more than paid for.
I quite like Arizona as well. Perhaps one day you can show us some of the vortex areas or do some ufo hunting or both 👽
Thank you for sharing.
Totally agree with what you say. I did RT66 in a tiny British open top classic car, 2 years ago over 7 weeks, Arizona totally wonderful. If you can only do a short bit of Rt 66 has to be Kingman to Needles going over the Oatman pass would be my must do. But so much else too that is wonderful in AZ
Loved your video all the best Johnny 👍
“Maybe good is a stretch…..” a very long stretch 😂😂😂😂
Well, now I have that Eagles song in my head, and it's all your fault 😂 I enjoyed the landscapes in this video - similar to some parts of central Australia, but different too.
foot long chili dogs - my favorite vegetable
All my grandparents were born before the hotel was built in Flagstaff. I'm getting old.
Gotta love good ole AZ🫶🏼
Did you turn right at Alberquee (?) like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck didn’t?
Yes, there is no place like home......
Hi Guys … you didn’t find any beef jerky in Vietnam 🇻🇳? I’m surprised. It’s sold every where in our country and it’s cheap too 😎. Next time try it when you’re both here!
We found a lot of beef and pork floss! But did not notice any jerky. We’ll keep our eyes open for it next time 🙂
Think you have a few Aussies watching mate lol
I’ll be watching you 😊😂🎉
Dutch flag with OPEN @ 20.40 😱🤯 Greetings from Amsterdam
Did you remember to take a left turn at Albuquerque?
Well, I'm a standin' on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
and such a fine sight to see:
it's a girl, my Lord, in a flat bed Ford
slowin' down to take a look at me.
Come on, baby, don't say maybe.
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me.
We may lose and we may win, though we will never be here again.
So open up, I'm climbin' in, and take it easy.
Meteor Crater. First time I saw that was in the movie Starman starring Karen Allen and Jeff Bridges, 1984. Thirteen years before Tia was born. God now I'm dating myself.
Yeah it doesn't seem like that long ago we were taking a similar drive in a rental from Vegas (including dipping into Mexico) then when Tia said she was born in 1997, was like oh my where is time going?
Ok, I've gotta know -how tall is Tia?
18:10 Dinosaurs had chainsaws???
Do you miss Blueberry? Thecar you had in Australia?
Yes 😊
What's the name for the present car? Could name it Raspberry 😊
What's the highway speed limit? There must be a whole lot of charging of batteries going on is that little car! 🙂AU
I bet if I loaned my car to Cheveyo it would come back in better condition than it started 🚙🛠🤩
That cargo train filled with Amazon cars is amazing in a sad capitalism kind of way.
Did you see Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck sitting on a deck char. Daffy Duck holding a sign Miami Beach or bust?
I was SO waiting for Tia or Cheveyo to bust out a mention of “Alba-Koykee” in honour of Bugs…
He always took the wrong turn there.
Tia for scale 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Don't forget to clean the inside of the exhaust pipe. 😂
Gotta check for potatoes 🥔
@@OnePackWanderersBeverly Hills Cop 😜😂
Tia doesn't like floppy
Mentioning lawyers in the ABQ...... would watch the shit out of " BETTER CALL CHEVEYO "
All I could think of and look for was a "Better Call Saul" billboard.
Is Better Call Saul pretty good? I think Breaking Bad was excellent but never got around to watching the follow up.
@OnePackWanderers Yes, Better Call Saul is excellent.
Although it is a prequel to Breaking Bad, it develops the main characters and enables an understanding of their roles in Breaking Bad.
Some episodes initially may seem a little slow, but everything comes together once you get further into it.
@@OnePackWanderers Much like BB, starts slowly and then picks up the pace. Worth watching for Rhea seehorn playing " Kim Wexler " alone - Well worth the watch if you find the time
10:56 Question. Did you take enough change of clothes for the 14 days or are you doing some laundry on the way?
Coin laundry at Motel 6 😎
Usually $6 for washing & drying.
