Yep, the girls are sick, they got sick Friday evening as we were pulling in for a stop at Santa Rosa, NM. When we got out of the car, we discovered they had high fevers. No wonder they were so cranky and whiny! I have to say I am thankful they got sick at the END of our trip!
Friday was a looooong drive. We left the house around 8am, but had to drop my hubby's nephew off at his house in Fort Worth, TX before we officially left town. It seemed to take a long time. We ended up having lunch at a McDonald's in the small town of Vernon, TX. I was amazed at this McDonald's, it had sinks in the bathroom in the shape of Texas! Where else would you find a state whose shape is so remarkable?
We finally made it to Albuquerque after traveling for about 10 hours. Tired, exhausted. And then of course, the girls kept waking about every 2 hours since they were sick. Poor things! I always feel so bad when they are sick. We didn't get much sleep that night.
At least we knew Saturday would be a shorter drive from Albuquerque, NM to Kingman, AZ. We stopped for lunch in Gallup. There was really nothing memorable about today, except I had to take Claire potty at the El Rancho hotel in Gallup. I think it must be a historic hotel from the days of the old route 66. They had pictures of celebs throughout the lobby. It was very southwestern and old.
Tomorrow we will finally arrive home after crossing the Mojave desert!
