We knew that as we traveled we would have to stop along our route. Our first stop was about an hour outside of Moab. We drove around a bend and over a small hill to spot the Monticello, Utah LDS Temple. We took a small detour and jumped out for some pictures. It was quite cold and windy so we didn't stay long but it was so pretty! We also passed by Chimney Rock and Ship Rock. They were pretty impressive! Next we stopped off on the official old Route 66. The kids thought it was quite cool since they have seen it in the movie Cars! Once we made it to Texas, and our hotel, the kids had a blast swimming. Our kids have one rule, so they tell us. "Our hotel must have a swimming pool!" On our second day we stopped off at the famous "Big Texan" steak house in Amarillo. This place is know for the famous 72 oz steak. The challenge is it you can finish it within one hour it's free! I wished we could have witnessed someone try, but no one was up for the challenge that day.
