If you’ve followed me for a while, you know that after visiting all 50 states, New Mexico is still one of my absolute favorites. I have visited newmexicotrue dozens of times and was so excited to see the state in a different way this trip — driving Route 66. The Mother Road is celebrating its centennial this year, making it the perfect time to visit. Here are some of my recommendations: Albuquerque: Stay at arrivehotels elvadoabq Eat at abq66diner Explore historicoldtownabq and sandia_peak_tramway Santa Fe: Stay elreycourt Adventure santafemountainadventures Admire the view skyrailway Santa Rosa: Visit The Blue Hole Gallup: Stay elranchohotel Eat at Jerry’s Cafe On the road: Don’t forget your chexmix newmexicomag newmexicotourismdepartment #NMTrue #NewMexicoTrue #NewMexico #Route66Centennial #NMRoute66
