7 Stops on Route 66/AZ
Plans to walk in the steps of the Shogun, eat yakitori on the street, visit Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, and the Imperial Gardens were washed away by typhoon Hagibis on October 12, 2019 that hit Tokyo and would not allow us to get a flight out of Sky Harbor in Phoenix.
Now, what. I had pet sitters from Australia in my home until October 24. My friend Ruth Ann and I put together a plan we have the same adventurous spirit. We pulled out a map of AZ, highlighted the places we wanted to see, reserved our hotel rooms, and jumped into the car. We were ready.

Winslow, Arizona
Standing on the corner in Winslow, Arizona. The corner commemorates the song “Take It Easy” which was written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey and most famously recorded by the Eagles.
This window is located on the outside of a store that sells t-shirts, postcards, and other Eagle souvenirs.
