Not sure what there is in Amarillo, we are only crossing the top bit of Texas but I guess we can sing ...

" When the day is dawnin'
On a Texas Sunday mornin'
How I long to be there
With Marie who's waitin' for me there.
Ev'ry lonely city where I hang my hat
Ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at.

Is this the way to Amarillo?
Ev'ry night I've been huggin' my pillow
Dreamin' dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me.
Show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weepin' like a willow
Cryin' over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me."

We will be driving Route 66 but how close we stick to it, I don't know.

Of course, there are lots of other things to see and do but these are just a few that I have on my bucket list.
