After visiting the UFO Museum, we left Roswell, and got on the road to Amarillo, TX. Every night I've been hugging my pillow, dreaming dreams of Amarillo...um, yeah. Amarillo is about 4 hrs from Oklahoma City, OK and is located in the middle of the Texas Panhandle, so it was cool to drive Texas's north on the way through to OKC. Oklahoma City was rather fresh. We had a pretty quiet day and did a bit of sightseeing around the city. We took a walk through Bricktow...

We left the car in El Paso, took the foot-bridge across, and walked straight into...

Once loaded our plan today was to get to either Phoenix, or Tucson, Arizona. As we knew we would have to stop at Phoenix again in about 10 days time, we decided to push the extra 2hrs on to Tucson. It's pretty much bang on 500 miles from LA to Tucson, which is about an 8hr drive, so not too bad. ...
