87. Route 66 - Where the Mother Road Begins in Illinois

Route 66, also called the Mother Road, weaves 2,400 miles with gusty winds on open-fields, scorching deserts covered in lava beds, and ends on pier lined with palm trees as tall as skyscrapers. To embark on the ultimate Route 66 road trip, we start in Illinois where the road begins. Along the way, we test our reflexes at Arcadia: America’s Playable Arcade Museum, take some photos of the World’s Largest Railsplitter Covered Wagon in Lincoln, IL, and stroll through the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum.
