Route 66 Day 5 β€” Texas to New Mexico

We cruise through Amarillo, pass the Route 66 midpoint in Adrian, TX, and cross into New Mexico. The day ends in Tucumcari β€” neon signs, abandoned motels, and the landscape shifts to wide-open desert. We’re officially in the West now.

πŸ“ Stops: Amarillo, TX, Wildorado, TX, Vega, TX, Adrian, TX, San Jon, NM, Tucumcari, NM

🎬 This is part of our Route 66 series β€” driving the full Mother Road from Chicago to LA.
