Route 66: The Beginning (and The End)

"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step," says Lao Tzu, and so does a journey of 2,448 miles! Today is day one of our mega exploration of Route 66! This was a tough one, starting in LA, because 90% of your day will be traffic, just the stops in this video alone ended up costing north of $30 in paid parking, and there are few opportunities to pull over even if you see something amazing, but still! ROUTE 66 has begun! A few more days poking around the route in California and we'll be on the open road past the traffic, on our way to Chicago, Illinois, and back! I hope you're ready!
Today we see the original 1926 terminus (end) of Route 66 in Los Angeles, and then it's later official end point in Santa Monica, CA - followed by the more traditional ending point (or in our case, starting point) of the Santa Monica pier!
It may be the "End of the Trail" for westbound Route 66 travelers, but for us, its the start of another Randomland Adventure!

I've watched this series at least 1/2 a dozen times and I'm getting ready to do it again. I never get tired of it and we are planning our 5th trip on the route. It will be interesting to see how much has changed and sadly how much has vanished. No one has done this better than Justin.

If you have time, please list all the places where you stop: Where did you sleep (hotel/motel/teepee)? Where did you eat breakfast/lunch/dinner? Where did you stop for gas? What museums/gift shops did you visit? What amusements did you enjoy? What fun pics did you see? So far you have been to Clifton’s Cafeteria and the Santa Monica pier. Keep up the good work/fun!

I live in Duarte, CA and Route 66 runs right through the middle of town. I've been driving down Route 66 almost every day for the last 37 years. Every year the city has a parade commemorating the route. You gotta come check it out.

I have seen alot of travel vloggers and I have to say you certainly do your research. Most know nothing or Google info and read the first thing they see, which is usually inaccurate. You actually dig deep and know what you're talking about.

In January I stood on Santa Monica Pier (stayed with friends in the area). even though I am a life long traveler you're love of Route 66 inspired me to go there. I was a bit sad that I didn't do more of it but I was worried about weather.

I know you love history so you probably have this book, but if not, find the guide to Route 66 by Michael Wallace. If that name sounds familiar, Mr Wallace was the voice of the Sheriff in the Cars movies.

Woah! This looks amazing! It'd be so fun to journey through Route 66. Clifton's looks like such a fun restaurant tbh, I'd really like to go there one day. I was born in LA - don't live there anymore though, but I never knew it had so much history in it's downtown area. So cool!

Oh, man, I remember living in California, I *hated* the traffic. I lived on a main road in Woodland Hills, it was awful. I have the worst anxiety that's easily triggered by being stuck in traffic. The only good thing was being an hour or so away from Anaheim!

Great video mate! I feel the same way as you about downtown LA, but despite that I think I'd still love to see some more content in and around LA itself once you get back from your road trip. Maybe checking out some of the old buildings like the Bradbury or going to Griffith Park to visit Walt's Barn etc??

That was fascinating! I have always wanted to see the Santa Monica pier! I had no idea that it was the official end of Route 66. Where's Ally? You aren't going to forget her, are you? You guys have fun and be safe on your trip! I wonder why Route66 doesn't end all the way to the East coast? That would have been cool. Anyway...TY for sharing and happy trails!
