    I'm of a certain age and having driven the Road in the 70s, I found this almost overwhelmingly sad. More that a few of the western remains I had visited. Kitschy? Yeah. But that was the charm. Overpriced? Yeah, but we didn't have any money anyway. Memories.

    I am from Taiwan. I visited Route 66 Museum in Kingman AZ last month. I like the feelings in the towns on route 66.
    I have no priviledge to watch this video. Wish I can watch it.
