Traveling to North Carolina - Day 1 (Murrieta, Ca - Holbrook, Az)

 So, since our family has decided to drive across the country again, I decided to re-open our travel blog...

This time we are driving for a different reason. We are taking our oldest daughter, Keegan to Duke University Medical School to complete her Nutrition Masters. She will be locating to North Carolina for the next 15 months. Her and her 2 cats, Taco and Meatloaf. In case you are curious, the cats did great on day 1 of traveling.

We kinda got a late start, swung by her apartment to grab all of her last minute stuff, herself and her two cats. With the truck packed, we headed to our first stop, Holbrook, Arizona.

1. We stopped for a quick lunch (Sonic - Limeades and tater tots) and cheaper gas (4.92 a gallon) in Kingman, Arizona

2. We made a quick stop in Winslow, Arizona and found "Standing on the Corner"....was kinda cool for Kim and I...Keegan haven't even heard the song; so on the drive to Holbrook, we played the song.

3. Holbrook, Arizona is a small town along the way on Interstate 40, which is old route 66. We found the Wigwam Hotel (hotel rooms shaped like Tepees) which Disney/Pixar used to model the Cozy Cone Motel in "Cars".

I have included pictures of our adventure today underneath this post.

Talk to you tomorrow,
