What kind of pursuit can awaken a dream. What kind of road can make the heart free. The answer lies here: U.S. Route 66.
A traveler once drove a 4,000-kilometer journey across the western United States. The scenery along the way is like “the legend of the United States unfolds before your eyes.” The road to the western United States is the road of dreams. Although it is long, you don’t want to rush it. walk by.
What will you feel on Route 66?
American West, passionate cowboys, rough and wild scenery! Self-driving RV is the best way to gallop in this vast world. The car runs all the way, and the changing scenery flies into the eyes. Feel the speed and passion of your own, how fun your heart is… This is not an off-road adventure, but a journey of the soul. Holding the steering wheel, you can see along the way: shops selling souvenirs of Route 66; bars that maintain their original appearance, retro motels and gas stations, a lot of used license plates, playing popular music from the 30s and 40s, Full of nostalgic elements…
In my opinion, my favorite is the wavy hilly road, which is like a boat sailing in the ocean, especially when there is a bloody sunset ahead, and the road is reversed with golden light like a sparkling sea. We drifted all the way, until the sky gradually turned from purple to thick ink.
route 66, undoubtedly has this magic. On Route 66, start a road trip related to the dream of freedom, and you will find the joy of a real self-driving journey – the legendary history and dream stories deposited along the way, in the air of pioneering, freedom and creation, go ahead.
Over the years, there has never been a shortage of people who continue to run on this road, those who chase their dreams, those who are nostalgic, those who fall in love, and those who move forward bravely towards freedom. Everything in the world will have a time when it will age and disappear. Living in the present is a positive life. manner.
Yes, we are eager to be on the road. When heading down Route 66, we understand what it means to be “on the road.”
People who like to travel often say “on the road”. On the road, I was reading a book called “Around the World”, and on the road, it was also a state. How this state is, a lot of times depends on which road you are on. No other road has become a piece of history, a culture, or even a dream like Route 66!
Known as the “Mother Road”, Route 66 traverses the United States, from Chicago to Los Angeles, this nearly 2,500-mile journey, the scenery along the way is like “the legend of the United States unfolds before your eyes”, “although It’s long but you don’t want to rush through it.” For many travelers who come to Route 66 for “pilgrimage”, this journey is like a “dream road to look back on the past and experience the western style”.
Route 66 is full of human tragedies and sufferings, and also makes later generations endow the highway with so much “freedom” and “romantic” meaning? Jack Kerouac certainly played a “bad” role, and the half-daughter’s binge-drinking, marijuana, and indulgent experiences on Route 66 are documented in “On the Road.” After that, Route 66 was in Forrest Gump’s Forrest Gump run, and of course in Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea.
Years later, you will not forget the mother’s road in the United States that you once drove an RV.
