It wasn’t planned, but in one week, we have been to two famous Route 66 destinations: Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., and now Albuquerque, NM. Because it was rather hot in California, we didn’t get to explore that portion of Rte. 66, but we did get to explore the famous highway in New Mexico. Know as Central Avenue, in the area known as Nob Hill (no relation to the neighborhood of the same name in San Francisco), the area we visited was lined with hip restaurants, converted gas stations, galleries and even a Starbucks built to fit the area.
