Route 66 You'd
be hard pressed to find a driver who hasn't heard of the legendary Route 66, one
of the original US highways often known as the Mother Road. The famous highway
originally ran from Chicago, Illinois, through Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas,
New Mexico, Arizona, and California, before ending at Los Angeles, encompassing
a total of 2,448 miles. It
was recognized in popular culture by both a hit song and a television show in
the 1950s and 1960s, before being officially removed in 1985. For drivers who
still want a taste of the route, Portions of the road that passed through Illinois,
Missouri, New Mexico, and Arizona have been designated a National Scenic Byway
named "Historic Route 66". In
1990, Route 66 associations were founded separately in both Arizona and Missouri.
As the popularity and mythical stature of Route 66 has continued to grow, demands
have begun to mount to improve signage, return Route 66 to road atlases and revive
its status as a continuous routing. Along
these lines Route 66 has been established as a National Scenic Byway in Illinois,
Arizona and New Mexico with National Scenic Byway status pending in Oklahoma and
Missouri as of 2007. Another move is also afoot that aims to reinstate Route 66
as an official U.S. Route. Until then, drivers can still enjoy Historic Route
66 for a scenic and historical journey they will not forget. www.historic66.com
ET
Highway Nevada Curious
about life in space? The ET Highway in Nevada is the perfect drive trip for you.
Journey 147 miles north of Las Vegas and you will find the Extraterrestrial Highway
(Highway 375) in Sand Spring Valley. Highway 375 stretches for 98 miles and the
tiny town of Rachel is a popular stopping point for UFO fans hoping to learn more
about the highway and the mysterious former military testing facility, Area 51.
The
E.T. Highway earned its moniker in April 1996, thanks to the hundreds of claims
of UFO sightings along the lonely stretch of road, which is close to top-secret
Area 51. Even today, visitors and locals report seeing strange lights in the night
sky. As a result, the E.T. Highway draws hundreds of curious visitors. Day-trippers
from Las Vegas routinely stop in Rachel before venturing off to hopefully discover
the unexpected. www.rachel-nevada.com/ethighway.html
Overseas
Highway Florida For
holidaymakers seeking some fun in the sun, a cruise along the Overseas Highway
through Florida is the perfect drive option. The Overseas Highway is a 127.5-mile
long road carrying U.S. Route 1 through the Florida Keys. The Overseas Highway,
the southernmost leg of U.S. Highway 1 and sometimes called the Highway That Goes
to Sea is a modern wonder. The road, that follows a trail originally blazed in
1912 by Henry Flagler's Florida East Coast Railroad, stretches from Miami to Key
West. Today, motorists can travel the highway in less than four hours from Miami.
However, drivers should allow time to experience the natural beauty of the ever-changing
scenery of the seas and wilderness bordering the roadway, and the magnificent
sunrises and sunsets the Sunshine State is famous for. www.floridakeys.com/overseashighway.htm
Driving
down the Vegas Strip For
travellers looking for exciting nightlife Las Vegas is the place to be, located
in the southwestern corner of Nevada near the borders of California and Arizona.
All the action in Vegas is centered on one broad avenue that stretches from the
southern fringe of the city northward for a dozen miles until it reaches the heart
of old downtown. This is Las Vegas Boulevard, commonly known as "the Strip". Nearly
all of the major casinos are lined up along its sides. A drive down Las Vegas
Boulevard takes you past the pyramid of Luxor casino, the skyline of New York
casino, the Eifel Tower of Paris casino, the great tent of the Circus casino and
the lofty tower of the Stratosphere casino. Eventually, it takes you to downtown
Vegas and Fremont Street, home of the historic old gambling parlors like Binyons
and the Golden Nugget. Just driving down the strip past all these spectacular
casino resorts is a fantastic experience. At night, "the strip" comes alive with
miles of colored neon and millions of dancing lights, making it a perfect place
for a driving adventure. www.visitlasvegas.com/vegas/index.jsp
