Come Along On Our Real Live Road Trip to Walley World
Walley World - Sorry Folks I cry like a baby
We drove TEN days across America to the spots in the National Lampoons Vacation Movie in our Wagon Queen Family Truckster. Our final stop on our road trip was at "Walley World" to ride the Colossus wooden roller coaster one last time. Then it catches on fire just two weeks later after it closes. Here are the final moments on our Griswold family Road Trip.The Grand Canyon - El Tovar Lodge Cash Grab
On this Griswold Vacation Road Trip we stop at the Grand Canyon at the El Tovar Lodge just like in the National Lampoons Vacation Movie. We then drive over to Delgadillo's Snow Cap Drive-In on Historic Route 66 and get a little ice cream while meeting everyone in this small town that inspired Pixar to create the Cars Films and Radiator Springs. We then took the most amazing drive on our 3,000 mile trip across America on Route 66 to CA. Yea it was a little scary being the only car for hours out in the desert with nothing around, but we saw some of the most amazing views and the inspiration for the Pixar Cars movie.Truckster Fire - Yeah my wife filmed it
It was going to happen, but I was hopeful that the truckster would only break down once during our 10 day road trip across America. We head to Santa Rosa New Mexico and also the Wigwam Motel #6 in this episode on our Griswold Family Vacation.72 oz Steak - I take on the challenge and don't barf
We are off to Amarillo Texas to our next Griswold Vacation road trip stop, the Big Texan. We spent the night at the Big Texan Hotel and had an amazing steak dinner. We also did the 72 oz steak eating challenge. This was one of the highlights of our ten day trip across America. Bobby and his team at the Big Texan are the friendliest folks you are ever gong to meet and we were instantly part of their family. If you are traveling across Route 66 this is a must do! Say Hi to Bobby and the folks for us. The Big Texas Steak Ranch: http://www.bigtexan.comCadillac Ranch - Road Trip Hidden Gem
